Here is a progress update from a small-time investor in Connecticut who is trying to achieve financial freedom.

You've gotta work with someone who understand the investor route, a broker, who knows who can actually get the loan done is your best bet!

A notable sign of progress is that Detroit's population saw a slight uptick in 2023 according to the US Census—the first increase in nearly 70 years, which shows some positive momentum.I've found Detroit to be a good mix of cash flow and potential appreciation, but having a solid team on the ground is absolutely crucial.

I'll bet there was no locksmith or the tenant locked themselves out of the house.Unless there was a defective lock, I wouldn't pay and even then, why didn't the tenant call you?

We made a bet: be okay with no (or negative) margins on cleaning and let high quality reviews pay dividends years later.It’s paying off. 

Your best bet for locating and connecting with this individual is on BiggerPockets or your local REI meet-up.

If its' long term appreciation (which I'm personally not a fan of betting on) you can look at it as, if you put a small 3.5% down payment using FHA or Fannie Mae, and your property appreciates on average at 3% a year.

They are all long term, except one is a flip in progress. 

Looking forward to hearing more as it progresses! 

I think Airbnb is your best bet for cobbling together MTR pricing.
