I am working to build out some models for each but I don't have a clear idea of the route forward for construction or long term financing.

It’s a neighborhood that’s gaining momentum as more investors discover it.Key ROI Factors:Low entry prices compared to other urban neighborhoods.High appreciation rates as demand spills over from nearby areas like Berry Hill and Wedgewood-Houston.Pro Tip: Look for 1950s ranch-style homes with potential for open-concept layouts.4.

Here’s what I recommend:Cash Investments:No Debt, No Stress: With cash, you avoid third-party control and loan vetting, giving you full control of returns.Equity Builders: Partnering with builders often reduces your property entry cost by up to 20% below market value.Consistent 10% Returns: With an all-cash approach, achieving 10% ROI is realistic and efficient.Financing Strategy:If cash isn’t feasible, consider a balanced financing model:40-50% Down Payment: Keep leverage manageable while maximizing returns.Lower Debt Exposure: A conservative loan-to-value ratio (LTV) reduces risks and keeps returns stable.Work with a Builder: Collaboration with builders can lower acquisition costs and increase your ROI.Key Takeaways:If possible, prioritize cash for simplicity, control, and consistent returns.Financing can work well with a disciplined approach to debt and a strong underwriting process.Partnering with builders offers opportunities to reduce costs and enhance your portfolio’s profitability. 

@Chris Pomerleau thanks buddy, if only I could get my fashion style as synced up as you I would be unstoppable!

Should I notify the current tenants in advance of each showing, or would an open house-style showing be more appropriate?

Lol.....Maybe I should develop a business model that installs them...for a slight additional fee. 

I just put some at my personal residence.Hey Garrett...would you be able to provide the make and model of those cameras? 

From Facebook Marketplace to Airbnb-style rooms, there are countless ways you can market your rental property online.

I'm pretty sure it had to record to an SD card but this was 8-10 years ago, and I'd be shocked if they didn't have cloud recording models today.

I haven't been expanding my business with LMHA since the end of 2016 per my posts above so I don't know exactly what changed, but I expect the outsourcing of inspections to private industry + some executive level leadership + replacement of staff with new faces excited to serve the needs of HUD/Landlords/Those In Need has resulted in an agency I will develop more business with.The HCVP will always be a double edged sword for landlords (See Section 8 Bible discussion) but for now I have discovered it is finally worth the effort to participate in the program.I specialize in Toledo's transition neighborhoods, discounted houses on the edge of nicer areas but also on the edge of trash...the Section 8 program allows me to get long-term tenants who are a good business model provided they are consistently managed and visited/inspected for additional "visitors" (relatives and random dogs/cats) and damage/housekeeping which can destroy a home if left unchecked.You need to know the rules, repair and renovate for long-term durability, prepare for inspections thoroughly and keep a team of contractors who will hold those standards...after 8 years we have been through a hundred inspections.
