Long and short, when I now look at my "return on Equity" numbers as opposed to my casual on cash return numbers it makes all the sense in the world for me to sell.Wholesalers contact me at least once a month the past 10 years and are always asking if I want to sell one of my properties, but I'll be hard-pressed to ever find a wholesaler that wants to pay me for what these properties are worth and is also willing to buy all the properties in one transaction which is how I'm looking to sell.Given how good our return numbers are here in northeastern Ohio compared to the parts of the country I know that out of state investors would definitely be very interested in in this portfolio.
