I am forever grateful to be doing business with people with integrity and vision and look forward to completing my first deal.  

Integrity is the word here.

Ragland a well respected "coach" in my area known for his integrity, but he is also my neighbor and I see how he lives and the fruits of his labor.

I was honest with myself and told myself that at the end of the day, I didn’t want to do the repairs directly and manage the tenants, so I just used a property management software that has an integration with maintenance platforms and it’s been great.

But a good realtor is definitely worthwhile in legitimizing your company and being an integral part of your overall mission.

:@Gerardo DominguezI agree and Engelo is a realist he would never mislead his investors to make an extra buck.Thanks for kind words Matt,I'll tell you this mate, if we compromised our integrity and converted just for the purpose of making sales, I'd be a multi multi-millionaire right now.I'd piss of a few people and eventually it would catch up with me.Bankruptcy would be an option and a disappearance to Australia.NOT me mate and definitely NOT Ohio Cashflow.Delayed gratification and reputation is the key to this business.We are building to last...Thanks and much success

Is it just Cap rate, Cash on Cash return and the Equity Multiple or are their other integral parts that I'm missing?

step 1 is education and integral to that, learn the r.e. cycle or pay the price for working against it!

Not sure if I am integrating Private Money correctly (5%, will do 100% of cost + rehab, 6 mos deferred, then terms up to 25 years). 

Because there is something about integrity ...
