I make sure there agent get's the inspection and quote reports with all this because this "mother fk's" them.

Speaking with the seller's agent, all the tenants are current on rents and pay rents on time.

It’s not for everyone, but with the right team, an agent who knows the market, a solid property manager, and good contractor connections it can be a great way to your porfolio.For example, Cleveland is affordable, has strong rental demand, and offers solid cash flow.

For any value add project, the primary evaluation is based on the numbers.Provided you have trustworthy teammates for the renovation side and a competent agent on the valuation side, you'll perform no matter the location.It seems your weighing factors that relate more towards long-term investing and where your asset will appreciate the most.In respect to emerging markets, you'll want to use characteristics like population growth, employment growth, safety trends and path of progress.

These figures are even higher than those that were used by unscrupulous local developers, master brokers and local real estate agents a few years ago to lure unsuspected foreign buyers.

With the help of an investor-friendly agent How did you finance this deal?

Best advice is to have a lender and an agent working together to help you achieve your goals. 

i work with agents, PMs, deal finders, lender, etc. all the time.  

Listing your property there ensures visibility.Build Relationships: When agents reach out, respond quickly, highlight your property’s amenities, and showcase your flexibility to meet displaced families’ needs.Highlight Insurance-Friendly Features: Emphasize features like flexible lease terms, utilities included, and a fully furnished setup to attract insurance placements.This approach has helped me successfully market to insurance companies.

Cash flow depends on the down payment, but using a HELOC could keep your cash reserves intact while you get started.Make sure to build a reliable team (property managers, agents, etc.) to help you manage the property while working full-time.
