Hi Yu Jin,Dayton is a step up from Toledo but also comes with a step up in price.The numbers make sense in many Ohio cities.You make money when you buy and not when you sell.So look for off market (We do a lot of direct to seller), negotiate hard, buy with cash and buy quickly.Great deals don't last so you need to know the numbers very well in your target market.I've flipped hundreds of properties in Toledo since 2014 and am glad to say that I know the market like my back pocket.All I need is the address, scope of work and how much I can buy it for.Quick access to AREIS, the MLS to run comps and "ka ching".I know if it's a deal or not.Immerse yourself in the market and become a market expert on the numbers.Nothing comes easy mate and all good things take time.If you are looking to build a rental portfolio in Ohio you have to build a big one.Buying 1 or 2 properties and expecting a significant impact to your bottom line from a net-worth or cashflow standpoint isn't worth the risk IMO.In all sub $100,000 markets, it's important to build a large portfolio as there is a high likelihood that you will have repairs and vacancy on 1 or 2 properties at any given moment.Just my opinion and all the best.

Hello, my wife is an optometrist and we are looking to use a physician loan to purchase our primary residence.We have some debt that we would like to payoff through a DSCR cashout refinance in am existing investment property I currently own and from there we hope to be in a good place for the doc loan.Our challenge is finding a lender that can handle both the DSCR cashout refi and the doc loan, since coordinating two separate contacts seems to add extra challenges.If you or someone you know can do physician loans (for optometrists) and also DSCRs I would appreciate being in touch.

You need to find an attorney to draft the condo docs, but of course you have to check zoning requirements to make sure the cpr as you envision is even possible.
