Hi Kevin,I'm a big fan of buying with cash and my thought process is quite contrary to everyone else's.Cash is KingCashflow is QueenLeverage can be a peasant lolOne can retire investing in Toledo with $1m in cash.Off-course, this all depends on how many villages you need to feed 🤓I have too many "villagers" on my back so it's a bit of a different story for me.Sub $100,000 markets like Toledo require volume to work and to be worth the risk if you are looking to buy and hold.Not much growth potential long term so I would consider it a strict cashflow play.Start slow and small and you can always scale up once you learn the market.Or call it quits and exit if you decide it's not for you.IMO, leverage should only be used to scale a portfolio and only after you have immersed yourself enough in a specific market.And only once you have decided that you want to stick around in that specific market and invest in it long term.Over the years, I've witnessed many folks use leverage and attempt BRRRR out of state only to fall short and say "the market sucks and it doesn't work".Nothing works unless you make it work and a market like Toledo can work better than any other market I know from a cashflow perspective.I've been investing since 2014 and flipped hundreds along with currently managing 400 SFH.Only this year have I started buying small multifamily properties.It's an adjustment and a different animal but let's just say it's in the same breed of animal lolImmerse yourself in a specific market and become an "expert" on the numbers in that market.Find off market deals, negotiate hard, buy with cash and buy quickly.You make money when you buy and not when you sell so you must buy cheap.There are many ways to skin a cat mate and this is how I get my fur lolWishing you much success

If they are so easy to rent, then why are they vacant.If we look at it strictly on a numbers perspective and we assume everything you said was correct, we'd have $93,600 of stabilized revenue.

I have flipped houses strictly as the investor.

If your attorney makes a special trip just to do your case and sits and waits while the regular guys get first hearings you will pay through the nose.Dave DonnettMike HaasForest HeisPS: Hamilton County strictly enforces the rule that if the property is in an LLC or the eviction is brought in the name of a management company, a lwyer must appear.

Every market is a bit different, but sticking to what you would be desiring as a guest is more certain to hit than going based strictly off value.I find it ironic how vast the differences are between STR and LTR. 

Anything over 4 units is commercial where DSCR usually goes up to 8 Max in most cases after that its strictly commercial or SBA.

This leaves a margin to cover holding costs, financing expenses, and still achieve a desirable profit.Here's the formula:Max Purchase Price = (ARV x 0.7) - Estimated Renovation CostsKeep in mind that this is a guideline and not a strict rule.

Just make sure you don't rely strictly on the numbers, because they don't always tell the whole story.

These funds can be used to budget for routine maintenance, debt reduction or property renovations.
