Yes, so Ohio was hot for the last few years but now it has cooled some. 

If you have an oceanfront property, what type of grill are you providing your guests? 

In that environment buying in the hood becomes very tempting, but that little bit of cash flow comes with a huge cost in headaches, the probability of property damage (things like a charcoal grill in the living room) and long term you might just be treading water.Average net cash flow is probably around $200 per door after you have stabilized the property, so you need a few units before it amounts to something.

Its oaky so far, 2 months in and I got a listing appointment out of it so that was cool and I do add all of them into my CRM with a drip campaign so I might know better after a year. 

Our school friends thought it was so cool.

I have around $3k net income now off real estate (8 doors) its a cool feeling to know i could live off it if moved to an inexpensive country like mexico, peru, etc. 

They completed our project 6 months later than they estimated – during which we saw the market cool and interest rates rise.

BTW, recently I stumbled upon searchseo.io recently, seems pretty cool for optimizing your site and getting it noticed.

Treat them well, but keep a professional, happy distance.As a teacher, I feel like many young teachers make the mistake of trying to be the "cool teacher" and it gets them in trouble. 

In total, the cool factor of the idea of lower expenses and security cost me $900,000 over 12 years from a 450k initial investment.
