Amazing that this is the only business in America where you are providing a service for free at the moment.

Here are a few things that I like about the neighborhoods in Indy compared to other states: high rent-to-home-value ratio, consistent and gradual city development, relatively low property tax and insurance cost, affordable renovation service cost.

I am scared of servicing two mortgages in the case of a vacancy.

.- Leverage Serviced Housing & Co-Living Models: High-end, furnished rentals for military professionals, digital nomads, and traveling contractors.Example Strategy- Raise $1M from 10-20 investors (military/gov personnel) to buy 3-5 properties in Germany or Spain.- Use seller financing & local bank loans to maximize purchasing power.- Rent properties to military families, U.S. contractors, or co-living tenants for stable cash flow.- Utilize local tax incentives and investment visas to increase ROI.Why This Could Be a Billion-Dollar Play- Solves a real problem for U.S. military/gov professionals looking to invest overseas.- Provides stable, built-in demand (military personnel have guaranteed salaries & housing stipends).- Creates an alternative wealth-building strategy for a niche group of investors.- More scalable than traditional rentals.

The license doesn't cost more, the service and quality does.And a note on that cost, in my experience hiring contractors, only a small percentage of the cost savings was due to finding the right guy who is willing to work for less.

If the ARV has risen to $260k and you’re renting it out for $2900/month, you can likely qualify for a higher loan amount.Here are some key points to consider:Loan-to-Value (LTV): A typical DSCR refinance will allow you to borrow up to 75-80% of the property’s ARV, so for a $260k property, you might qualify for a loan of $195k to $208k, which could help pull out most or all of your original investment.Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR): Since you're renting for $2900/month, the loan payment will need to be covered comfortably by that rent.

I would be leery of an product or service being promoted that has zero negative reviews.A 1-star review is often not realistic and will tank the algorithm in your first year for sure because it's not balanced out yet.

I do not use a property management service to advertise and have always used Zillow to advertise, previous references, housing records, credit checks etc

I suggest using a service like Mayistay.

We offer many of the same services as this agent, but we have no problem with investors flying to Detroit to check things out - we actually prefer it!
