Perhaps you could better show your workstation (desk and chair), as well as board games and curated books if you have such (highly recommend you get and show some if not).Your photos look good but I think the right photographer could make the place pop a lot more, for just a couple hundred dollars.

Kevin Goldman All Cash or Loan
5 August 2024 | 21 replies
Hi Kevin,I'm a big fan of buying with cash and my thought process is quite contrary to everyone else's.Cash is KingCashflow is QueenLeverage can be a peasant lolOne can retire investing in Toledo with $1m in cash.Off-course, this all depends on how many villages you need to feed 🤓I have too many "villagers" on my back so it's a bit of a different story for me.Sub $100,000 markets like Toledo require volume to work and to be worth the risk if you are looking to buy and hold.Not much growth potential long term so I would consider it a strict cashflow play.Start slow and small and you can always scale up once you learn the market.Or call it quits and exit if you decide it's not for you.IMO, leverage should only be used to scale a portfolio and only after you have immersed yourself enough in a specific market.And only once you have decided that you want to stick around in that specific market and invest in it long term.Over the years, I've witnessed many folks use leverage and attempt BRRRR out of state only to fall short and say "the market sucks and it doesn't work".Nothing works unless you make it work and a market like Toledo can work better than any other market I know from a cashflow perspective.I've been investing since 2014 and flipped hundreds along with currently managing 400 SFH.Only this year have I started buying small multifamily properties.It's an adjustment and a different animal but let's just say it's in the same breed of animal lolImmerse yourself in a specific market and become an "expert" on the numbers in that market.Find off market deals, negotiate hard, buy with cash and buy quickly.You make money when you buy and not when you sell so you must buy cheap.There are many ways to skin a cat mate and this is how I get my fur lolWishing you much success

David Gruszka Off market offer on house needed
2 August 2024 | 7 replies
Learn before you earn.Again, I am not trying to be “mean”, just keep in mind that you don’t know everything the seller is going through…from your side of the table this may look like an “easy deal” or a no brainer good deal the seller should jump on…seldom is this true.You probably won’t ever know what the seller is dealing with (could be multiple sellers, family issues, health problems with a loved one, and a hundred other things).
