I personally am interested in creating a long-term rental portfolio but I'd be interested in hearing any strategy, ie. house flipping, short term rentals etc.

Hey Lucas, if you already have built connections and a solid foundation of knowledge in Akron, I would keep building the portfolio there! 

I'm excited for you to be here, it's a great place to expand your real estate knowledge and build a successful portfolio. 

Currently I manage my own SFH portfolio of 7 doors.

Wishing you all the best in starting your portfolio! 

If you have a larger portfolio, are you still self managing?

Cliff, how would someone know if their portfolio is big enough to justify?

Hi Jared, I'm a former OOS investor myself who now lives in Indianapolis and works exclusively with other OOS investors looking to grow their portfolios here.

Cleveland is cash flow, we do build to rent in columbus urban infill where prices are the highest and land prices make sense. rents are good and on a DSCR can pull out cash and do again. easy scalable strategy and sell the portfolio eventually 1031 into something greater.

Built a 20 person company around our own portfolio.
