Some lose their shirts, destroy their health, and even ruin relationships.

Appreciation is just the cherry on top.The last few years Toledo somewhat caught up with appreciation but I believe we are capped now.It's a slow moving market and always behind the rest of the country.There is just not enough demand/infrastructure growth like in other markets to support continued appreciation.Historical data shows the Toledo market appreciating at the pace of inflation which is nothing to brag about hehe.IMO, it's a cashflow play and you should consider building a larger portfolio because it will be safer.Owning 1-2 properties can be a "hit and a miss" and really not the providers or PM's fault.There is a high likelihood of turnover so it's important to build a larger portfolio.If you experience "drama" on 1 or 2 properties, the other 4-5 are performing and can subsidize any losses incurred on the few that temporarily aren't performing.Wishing you much success

Owning several apartment buildings with a minimum of 25 to 30 units each.

I am looking for cash flow positive storage building in Texas, off a major highway, with value add potential, preferably in North Texas (Sherman/Denton/McKinney), Central Texas (Waco/Austin/San Antonio), West Texas (Odessa), or greater Houston area.  

I like that new builds don't require a lot of maintenance (although we had to put in a yard which was more than I expected).

I’m interested in building relationships to scale our knowledge and portfolios together.I’m so grateful for BP and everyone here! 

Starting to dream about building a trendy tiny home /  container home community in our local mountain town that has become insanely unaffordable to the  locals.

I like the idea of building up a big reserve and house hacking will definitely help do this quicker.

If anyone on here is experienced and willing to share information about getting into this game, connect with me to set up an interview so I can ask you questions, and/or collaborate on a deal, as I would love to gain hands-on knowledge and experience as quickly as possible, as well as cultivate trust and relationships that lead to more business and deals in the future.Thank you!

Home Insurance was very expensive due to hurricane.Builder wouldn’t let me transfer permit and build to another investor.
