Rents will go up and your biggest mistake was to buy a nice house in a desirable neighborhood.The real threat is buying in the hood, leveraged up to the gills, maybe even with hard money, tenants are bleeding you dry, while you are writing checks to attorneys and contractors.Milwaukee is getting a lot of attention lately: cash flow is still better than most places and appreciation is stable at 5-8%.

Afternoon Joseph,Are you just getting into wholesaling ?  

Depending on which article you read, there's between $26B and $30B under construction and in late planning stages in the metro area.

Good afternoon fellow investors,I just closed on my first rental property, which consists of a main house with 3 attached smaller units (efficiencies) - this is very normal in this area- , everything is on one meter.The previous owner used to live in the main house and therefore all utilities were included in the smaller units's rent payments.

@Timothy BoydHi Tim, I know I am late to the party, but any chance you can share your contractor's info to me as well?

Good Afternoon: There are a number of portfolio lenders in that area.

Hows the Akron market been looking lately? 

Can I charge him my late charge which is currently $100 after I get the rent on the 19th?

Since I personally always get the most out of conferences when I have dedicated time after to decompress, digest, and implement what I've learned, I booked a private beachfront villa with some friends for a few days immediately following BPCON (checking in the afternoon of Wednesday the 9th, checking out the morning of the 12th) just a few miles up the beach from the Moon Palace Resort, and we have a couple of beds still available so I wanted to extend the invite to folks here.A couple photos of the villa are below, and some of my favorite features of this place include:- Direct beach access off the back porch- Private heated infinity pool- Private furnished terrace- Private resort access- Wifi- Indoor jacuzzis- Private kitchen- Air conditioningShoot me a DM if you're interested!
