Part of the allure was the holding fees (insurance / property were several thousand less then up north) After one year, my Huntsville tenant had to move out early for a job relocation.

I dont see how the risk would be reduced on second mortgage unless you are planning to hold the property in some type of llc.

I'll work with an attorney to assist with drafting that.Q2: Yes, I'll talk to my CPA but we'll most likely hold the property for at least 1 year under the LLC given our timeline to design, permit, build and sell the property, meaning I should avoid short-term capital gains.  

I'll be specifically looking to start in the Cincinnati, Ohio and lean towards targeting buy and hold single family and potentially multi family as well.Any advice is appreciated and I look forward to connecting. 

If you want good cash flow but amazing appreciation potential and rentals you want to hold for the rest of your life, I would definitely consider Columbus!

We literally are wholesalers....our job is not to hold your hand.

- properties going at a time as a sort of hedge against 1 contractor holding me back on 1 property rehab.

Fed can’t raise interest rates to hold inflation down due to Fed debt levels.  

I am a huge proponent of buying and holding.

Future Appreciation: Holding onto the property allows for potential appreciation over time, especially since it’s in a neighborhood with homes ranging from $500k to $1.5 million.Pros of Renting: Steady Cash Flow: Renting the property, especially with an ADU, could generate substantial monthly income, especially since there’s no mortgage.
