It's funny you say this as 5 years ago there where only very few investors interested in the Toledo market.As inventory has all but dried up nationwide, folks are starting to look elsewhere.And some of those "not so sexy" markets back in the day like Toledo are finally getting a tonne of attention.I caution investors looking at other markets than the Midwest.Prices seem high and deals are very hard to come by.In such instances it's always good to have dry powder ready for when the tide turns.Toledo in my opinion is still a safe bet since I haven't seen it recover anywhere neat to market highs of 2006.Here are some of the key areas that we invest in and where all of our investors are buying:436064360743609436114361243613I'm also attaching screenshots with outlines of the exact location within our target zip codes.As with any investment or business.It always comes down to finding and working with the right people.The market stats/demographics don't work for you.The right people do.I hope the above helps anyone looking to invest in Toledo.Much success to all :)

🏢 Revitalizing Success: Transforming a Struggling Business into a Thriving Venture 🏢In the heart of our local community, I embarked on a journey that epitomizes the power of strategic thinking and problem-solving, resulting in the acquisition of a long-standing business and property that has become a beacon of success.The business, once a cornerstone of the community, faced challenges stemming from distant ownership decisions that strained the business and its dedicated managers—a remarkable husband-and-wife team.

My background is in construction and contracting so my plan is stemmed around value-add, flip, BRRRR. 

Hopefully, that isn't the case, but it does seem odd that a person/team who is great with systems would leave a person high and dry.

The ones I saw from those color batches had smudged text and gouges in the background color, kind of like when nail polish gets messed up before it dries.

Not to hijack this thread, but I am also running into issues with a dry market.

Although I was able to rectify the sewer issue the tenant would not allow the restoration company to come in and remove contaminated material, sanitize, and dry the place out.  

If you go back far enough on the wholesaling forum, it seems like wholesaling has dried up in every area.

With stem walls, I know a couple of their flood guys said it may result in us also having to do a flood study in the area and another foundation guy said it may throw off property values.

And being a W2, non-real estate professional, while you get access to those expenses and others, to offset the income earned, it will generally NOT reduce your tax bill stemming from your W2 earnings.One thing I would note, regarding the structure of a syndication and pass through losses: deprectiation tends to be the largest line item for "expenses" and creating net losses on your K-1.
