I'm particularly interested in the Poconos and Upstate NY (Catskills region).Outside of real estate, I enjoy working as a mental health therapist and traveling the world with my family!

Often the seller isn't really dealing with reality well - saying 'mentally challenged' is probably an over statement - but they are so desperate, or in such a bad way for whatever reason,  they will grasp at any straw put in front of them.  

You and your wife would be getting a guaranteed income stream for the rest of your lives, which is not only putting money in your pocket, It’s also giving you a substantial amount of peace of mind in that you’re gonna get that money regardless, you have nothing left to manage and you have ZERO legal liability to worry about, freeing up a lot of mental space to just focus on fishing, relaxing, and doing just whatever you and your wife wanna do.

Sunghee Section can be great if done correctly.We recommend screening Section 8 tenants just live regular tenants and doing all the background checks.Many, but not all, S8 tenants have entitlement mentalities and in additional to being hard on properties, (causing lots of damages) they expect you to do everything for them!

Hi Michael,I like your thoughts of building a large portfolio because it's very important in sub $100,000 markets like Ohio.A large portfolio = A safe portfolio.Personally, I've always been a big believer in buying with cash.Less is more.Once you gain experience and understanding the true income vs expenses of your portfolio.Then look at using leverage for faster growth.It takes many years to learn a market along with establishing a solid understanding of it's "in's and out's" from a people/team perspective.As investors we should always reverse engineer and protect the bottom line first and foremost before looking toward expansion and growth.My "cash only" mentality has served me well over the years in my businesses and real estate endeavors.Especially when things turned South and they always eventually do.Start slow, start small, buy with cash and build from there.Just my opinion and wishing you much successps.
