Relying on someone who has their 'own team' to run your rental business is a severe lack of internal controls in my opinion.

If you do it right, it’s arguably the best market to invest.Purchase: $80k-$130kRent: $1100-$1500 (no rent control in MI)1% rule: .9%-1.4% rule dealsCoc ROI: 5-12%Total ROI: 20-40%Cash flow: $50-$250/door (after all expenses and budgeting for maint, capex, vacancy)Appreciation: 3-10%+ (has been double digit for a decade)Location: C+, B-These numbers are based on the “sweet spot” in Metro Detroit.

I probably won’t structure my next deal this way, I would rather just own the property and have more control of the project.

or perhaps a reverse build to suit where the data center operator controls the buildout and the planning etc.I've not been involved in a data center first hand but the central OH market is pretty data and warehouse heavy as far as developments go and to echo the posts here, the power requirements are wild, and the red tape to get that power to the site is often cumbersome. 

He's absolutely right that using debt to control cash flow is also creating tax free cash for expansion.

The ones I manage total to 20 bedrooms.These rooms rent for between $125 to $225 per week depending on room size and amenities in the room (beyond basic amenities may include: Desk, Tv, private entry, tenant controlled AC, additional storage).This month after padsplit takes their 14.25% cut of the revenue I am recieving, from the units I own, $15,230 from 3 homes.

The state doesn’t have rent control laws, but landlords are prohibited from collecting more than one month’s rent for security deposits.

And while crime isn't out of control in either suburb, it is higher than the national average and the schools are medicore at best.

We already signed the purchase agreement several months ago...it has been on hold while they mitigated a pest control issue that has taken 2 months.If it's that important, make it part of your purchase agreement.

This control over contact, is apart of manipulation and abuse.I may be a kind person, I do consider myself to be somewhat of an empath as when I am dealing with confrontation or a disagreement I always try to put myself in the other persons shoes.
