Purchase price: $775,000 Cash invested: $250,000 Great deal on a property people were afraid of.

Looking to network in the Cincinnati area this weekend with anyone who is flipping. Experienced investor here, who is looking to build a team in the area. 

Find a property in my home market and buy and hold it. 

I want to buy him out because the property has a 3% mortgage rate, has gained 100k in equity the last 4 years and cash flows 1k a month.

The owner passed away in 2013, and the property deed is in her name.

Demand, quality of tenants, etc.According to my analysis should give a 12% CoC return but this is my first commercial property purchase just like some insight or if I should pursue other forms of commercial real estate. 

I am thinking about actively trying to grow my investment portfolio and use my existing properties as leverage to acquire more properties.

I'm unsure what the right path is, but I've been reading about investing in owner-occupied, multi-family properties.

That's the problem because you have no ultimate control of your property and it's a sign that you're treated second class compared to the locals .

We are starting to implement more VAs into our accounting and property management parts of the business.
