When deciding between managing your own property or hiring a professional service, consider these key factors: your available time and expertise, knowledge of local regulations, property scale and location, access to reliable maintenance resources, tenant management capabilities, financial implications, emergency responsiveness, and personal preference for hands-on versus delegated management.

G’Day BP folks,A fellow Toledo investor started a Facebook group revealing all local scammers.Mostly contractors.10+ years of investing in Toledo and stopped counting at $1m in losses.It’s just the nature of the beast and the cost of doing business in my eyes.Unfortunately, Toledo is notorious for bad operators and poor quality of workmanship in many industries.Maybe this group will help you not loose the same amount of cheese that I did $$$You’re welcome 😇 https://facebook.com/groups/786864700099337/

To choose the best rental strategy, research local regulations, lifestyle preferences, market demand, and property features.

I have two local contacts that can do 100% LTV on a primary home and another contact that can do a HELOC for an investment property.If interested in either or, send me a DM - happy to discuss both options and share my contacts with you so you can determine what's best for you. 

As well as doing what you said by analyzing properties daily, this can help a lot with understanding your local market. 

I'm not talking about jurisdiction shopping Texas, I'm talking about owners who live in Texas and operate in Texas 100% Although jurisdiction shopping to Texas seems like it would work the same way as long as the lawsuit was in Texas, if the local court would allow that. 

Partnering with Glenn Klingensmith provided valuable local insights, making this an attractive and strategic investment.
