In my experience, there’s always a story and sometimes the details in the deal are much different than one would imagine.What I see: someone who endured 12 months of anticipation, anger, humility, learning, letdown, stress, joy, and most importantly a mother flipping desire to take control of every facet of every transaction I will partake in in the near future.I’m emotionally exhausted thinking about what transpired over the previous 12 months.

However, I am trying to exhaust my options of obtaining funding to bring the homes up to code and ready for habitation.

@Dan Auciello I would exhaust a few free options before paying for a list.

Occupancy rates and ADR seem to be withstanding market shift, prices are lower than Blue Ridge, and year round attractions (wine, hiking, waterfalls, tubing, kayaking, history, festivals)

Thank you Chris, wise words to keep in mind while I'm looking for that property that will generate a fair cash flow to hopefully withstand a change in the market.

Mayle said.For at least seven years, the city of Toledo has tried to enact a lead-safe ordinance that can successfully withstand legal challenges to no avail.In the latest version, owners of residential rentals with four or fewer dwellings built before 1978 are required to have their properties inspected for lead paint while also obtaining lead-safe certificates from the Toledo-Lucas County Health Department.In addition, the inspections must be completed by a local lead inspector who visually inspects properties’ interiors and exteriors and collects dust wipes to test for compliance with U.S.

Lastly, I will assess the age of capex items like roofs, mechanicals, appliances, flooring, windows, etc to get a feel for what items are more urgent vs. those that may not be needed in the next decade.not an exhaustive list, but these are the things on my mind during a showing as an agent who's been in a lot of rental properties and thinks like an investor.

I bet it is exhausting ...

Medicaid will put a lien on the property and upon death, the Medicaid lien must be settled by the Estate which may exhaust all the equity.
