Cleveland and Dayton can be great markets for high cash flow and low purchase prices, but you need to be careful when navigating the neighborhoods so you're not buying in a D/F class area where no property managers will manage and where you'll never see any positive cash flow.

At any given time there are countless C/D neighborhood properties in Philadelphia that can be leased to a section 8 voucher recipient that cash flows well. 

This one was in my neighborhood and the timing was right!

Depending on how the water is getting in, there may be cheaper methods for sealing the basement walls from inside.Keep shopping until you find someone trustworthy with solutions.I would also consider going after the first contractor because they robbed you.

RW discovered that most clients shop with a "what are the monthly management fees" approach and not a "what are all of your revenue streams" approach.RW competes with a very competitive flat monthly management fee but then charges a minimum of 1 full month's rent for leasing and a host of other fees. 

VERY unlikely unless you either source an off-market property yourself or you find a unicorn deal (our last semi-BRRRR was a B-neighborhood property we sourced from an out of town wholesaler in late 2023, but couldn't get all our capital back out on refi).  

Look into neighborhoods like Jefferson, West Boulevard, Cudell, Clark Fulton, Brooklyn Center, Old Brooklyn, and Garfield Heights.I suggest working with an investor friendly agent so you can get the right guidance!

We are coming down to get a feel for some neighborhoods we've been looking at moving too and don't really have too much planned so I thought it would be a great time to connect with some lenders, investors, contractors, and liked mind individuals while I'm there!

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.DM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

Mechanicals, roofs etc. can be towards the end of their useful life and pass inspection but then the cap ex can't be absorbed in many of these C/D neighborhoods.
