I am also in the cincy market I will send you a connection request.

Looking ahead to my next project, do you have any advice or resources for finding off market deals? 

If you had a bit more capital, say $80,000 - $100,000, you could start doing BRRRR's in markets like Detroit (this is what I do).

I just feel I should go out of my way to warn others about this company's unethical sales tactics.

LA didn't have as much of an upswing in home values over the last ten years compared to the other areas but I also don't want to buy at the top of the market (which is San Diego right now, although may be doubtful it decreases - some places up 110%).

Yet, as I closely monitor the current housing market, I realize that stability and thorough due diligence are paramount before taking ownership.

It’s highly passive and there not much to do other than network and marketing.

I'm eager to learn from your experiences—what strategies or processes do you use to determine expense figures in your market?

As a long-time high-level Rentlinx.com user, the journey since Rentlinx.com removed its marketing offering roll it into AppFolio has been an absolute nightmare!

Make sure that the market there makes sense for your goals to invest.
