But with inventory being low and you having a guest house, it might stand out.

The vacation homes offered a low 10% down so that was helpful.

@Kristin MathernI would pay it given no keys were provided, it wasn’t specifically addressed/mentioned in your lease, you were provided the opportunity to address/fix yourself with a 25-30 dollar replacement from Lowe’s/Home Depot, and lastly, it was an existing situation that could have been avoided/prevented at move in.

Firstly, never underestimate the power of having low leverage on your property.

Cash flowing markets, low taxes, landlord friendly and large demand in renters. 

You basically have high growth and low cash flow Columbus OR decent growth and solid cash flow of Cleveland, Dayton, and Cincinnati. 

We came in low with our offer, but were willing to skip the inspection (which had already been completed before we offered) and stipulated that we would close in 20 days, which was super valuable to the seller.

ThanksWith described characteristics and a few assumptions on DSCR, we are very low 7’s with no repay and 1-point if that helps for sizing. 

If someone is relatively happy where the are, the low interest rate they currently have will keep them tied to the property.

At this time I manage and renovate majority of all my units to keep cost low but most likely not the best use of my time although I'm skilled at it.
