Assumed purchase price at asking, got the rent roll from the listing agent, currently rented 0% vacancy, and made some assumptions on taxes, owner paid utilities, etc.

Hello members, I am an out of state investor, currently owning 10 units in Cleveland.

I’m currently 17 and will get my real estate license as soon as I hit 18.

My primary focus for this investment is on long-term appreciation potential and leveraging rental income to pay down the mortgage, in this case I have no cashflow.Given the current market conditions, I understand that cash flow might not be immediate, but I'm more interested in the potential for appreciation over time and the ability to offset expenses through rental income.

Background:My wife and I current live just East of Dallas in a single-family home (past 2 years).

So real estate agents have access to the MLS where they can see all of the properties currently available.

I've reached out to about 50,000 contacts during this period but a few potential sellers a came across seem to already have realtors.My current approach involves using Deal Machine to identify potential properties by zip code, focusing on those with unknown sale dates or built dates before 2000.

Currently about to remodel one side of our duplex from a 2 bed/2 bath to a 3 bed/2 bath with upgraded mini split ductless HVAC system.We've been doing real estate investing for over 10 years and I'm close to finishing developing a land lording class for local landlords to learn from my mistakes of 10 years and similar to the BP mentality ensure landlords are raising the bar to push the less than reputable landlords out as we feel our tenants deserve better! 

However, I am currently facing significant difficulties in finding a tenant for the property.

I have done over 400 flips and currently own 144 SF rental properties.
