My experience so far has been positive.  4 investments starting ~ 9 months ago.  1 completed with principal returned, others are in progress. 

I accept that I won’t have every detail figured out, but I know for sure that doing nothing leads to zero progress.

Like other cities Indy doesn't have progressive zoning and permitting laws.

Think of it as a (hopefully not too) expensive lesson on the ins and outs of deposit management; I bet you won't make the same mistake again!

I look at location, price compared to surrounding properties (to force appreciation quickly), desirability, path of progress, underlying fundamentals, etc.

My point was that in the short term… until rates come down, you might be better off taking the safer bet of money in the bank given that you would see about the same cash flow, without the need to refi in a year… especially if you can’t even find a cash-flowing property in the first place.  

Every day my team and I are making massive progress in REI and I already have the freedom to travel back and forth anytime I want.  

I'll keep you posted with my progress.

Though not cheap, Perrysburg has seen consistent appreciation, making it a good bet for long-term growth.Investing $100K+ in Toledo:If you're putting $100K+ into one property, Ottawa Hills and Perrysburgwould be top choices for appreciation-focused investments.
