I also make sure the potential tenant sends me references from their previous landlords and I end up calling them.

It definitely has potential, but I agree with what @Dan Heuschele said.

The 70% rule is indeed a common guideline used to evaluate BRRRR deals, ensuring that you can potentially pull most of your money out on refinance.When lenders offer DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loans at 75% LTV (Loan-to-Value), it can change your analysis slightly.

Would very much be interested in also seeing potential opportunities in Ohio!

So you will have to weigh the importance of maintaining legal status and potential savings you may get out of a LLC.

If you know where to buy, Philly is a good potential house hack market.

I think the potential is there!

For that range you should not be having problems as you should be in B grade other than maintenance for capex that is missed but that is only a year or 2 and not vacancy.  .75% in Baltimore should be A grade with lesser vacancy and only potential initial maintenance. 

Do you think that will deter potential tenants?
