Plus, they provide great opportunities for cash flow, especially if you’re looking to scale and reinvest profits into future properties.If you’d like to connect or chat more about strategies, deals, or even market insights, feel free to reach out.

This is a significant down side to me as a long term investor as it basically wipes out your cash flow. 

Another work around that isn’t discussed much is working on a strategy with your insurance company to protect your other assets in the event of a claim.But also, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to consider getting the financing into your LLc name with a community bank and pulling cash out if you have substantial equity.Right now, since the loan is in your name, it shows up on your personal credit report.  

You'll likely need to be in a C/C+ neighborhood to find the 1% rule, but you can still break even or sometimes get some slight cash flow in the B neighborhoods of Columbus.

BTW, the rental property is cash flow positive.Not exactly.

If you buy less or take cash out you will pay tax on that amount. 

I still have that house and it rents for a grand these days. my first house was late 70s that I bought  in those days it was 80 10 and 10  you need 10% cash and normally a private HML would give you the 10% second and bank was the first.. interest on the first was 9% second was 15%.. this was before the Carter interest rate run up.. paid 80k for it in Milpitas CA.. and it was brand new bought it from Shapel . 

Realistically, one checking account and an accounting system will meet all your needs and keep your business better organized than 7+ bank accounts.If you want to collect bank interest from excess cash, add a savings account.

I have referred a loan out of state based on NOI, cap rate at purchase, room for increase income and purchase price vs market value.Maybe I didn’t articulate the intent of the post as clearly as I hopedFor anyone who has bought multi family out of state, “what are gives you the warm and fuzzies about a deal”:Obviously not cap rate, but maybe vacancy rate,  Cash on Cash ,GRM, IRR, Unlevered free cash flow, Cities over 250k?

I asked if he was willing to sell the house cash?
