Hi Yu Jin,Dayton is a step up from Toledo but also comes with a step up in price.The numbers make sense in many Ohio cities.You make money when you buy and not when you sell.So look for off market (We do a lot of direct to seller), negotiate hard, buy with cash and buy quickly.Great deals don't last so you need to know the numbers very well in your target market.I've flipped hundreds of properties in Toledo since 2014 and am glad to say that I know the market like my back pocket.All I need is the address, scope of work and how much I can buy it for.Quick access to AREIS, the MLS to run comps and "ka ching".I know if it's a deal or not.Immerse yourself in the market and become a market expert on the numbers.Nothing comes easy mate and all good things take time.If you are looking to build a rental portfolio in Ohio you have to build a big one.Buying 1 or 2 properties and expecting a significant impact to your bottom line from a net-worth or cashflow standpoint isn't worth the risk IMO.In all sub $100,000 markets, it's important to build a large portfolio as there is a high likelihood that you will have repairs and vacancy on 1 or 2 properties at any given moment.Just my opinion and all the best.

Essentially the developer / property manager didn’t pay our contractual rental income for years (a sum of nearly $30k) and I didn’t have much recourse.

I have a questionI have property I just acquired and renovated with a Fannie Mae loan.

Hello BP members,I live in Miami and I'm considering purchasing a long-term rental property in Orlando that will generate positive cash flow.

Buildium is a property management software and quickbooks is accounting software. 

I am a licensed agent up here in Albany and I also own a few properties myself in Schenectady.

I've already closed on the house and currently have an LLC in CT but have not moved the property over to the LLC yet because I wasn't sure if it makes better tax sense to move it under an LLC where I live (CA) or an LLC where the property is located (CT)... any help you can provide is much appreciated! 

How long ago did you acquire the property?

Current tenants rent our property (detached town home, 4b2b) for one year and want to extend leasing agreement recently.

I'm looking to get started in both areas , purchasing multi family properties.
