Hi Aqsa,I'm bias but then again, I've owned real estate all over and haven't found a better market for sub $100,000 than Toledo.Low entry price pointHigh cashflowEmployed tenants that pay rent onlineDecent areas with well kept homesNot much appreciation so IMO it's a strict cashflow play.If you find and buy off-market you can snag some great deals for sub $60,000 purchase and rehab.Quality of workmanship is the downside and so is motivation of other folks needed to make investing from out of state work.So beware.These are the downsides bit like with any market, you will always have pro's and con's.All the best 👍

The goal is to use post-tax dollars in order to avoid paying taxes on the gains.2.

Do everything you can to pay down the debt, and work on side hustles that actually produce income to help accelerate the process.

If the new people want the unit prior to the end of the current tenant's lease, I would tell them they would have to pay the daily rent beginning the day they got the key and took possession.

Are you all still including this coverage (Wind/Hail/Storm) and paying the premium for it or are you buying policies without Wind coverage?

those who are looking for a move in 2 weeks ahead of time are those who haven't found a place yet or people who have to move (eg being kicked out of their old place for not paying rent).
