My cost to Airbnb is better than VRBO and the same as direct (I pay a 3% merchant fee).  

Most out-of-state investors looking at Detroit are typically focused on cash flow, which means they're usually targeting C or C+ neighborhoods.

My primary focus is on the BRRR method, with a greater emphasis on appreciation over cash flow.For those with experience investing in Cleveland, I’d greatly appreciate any insights on neighborhoods worth focusing on.

Personally (as a STR-focused REALTOR), I would never give you numbers and tell you you can hit them. 

Everyone raves about Michael Hyatt's full focus planner or Grant Cardone's 10 X Planner. 

We're trying to decide whether or not to pay it off or save to buy another property. 

My focus is on affordable housing, large-scale mixed-use projects, and community impact, with an increasing interest in scaling into multi-family acquisitions and new construction.I’m also involved in medium-term rentals (MTRs) and short-term rentals (STRs), using my tech-driven background to streamline and scale these efforts effectively.

Still, considering how difficult it is to find a good real estate focused accountant, limiting your search to local providers usually gives you too few options.Expand your search to include remote CPAs.

Focusing solely on numbers often leads to the purchase of low-quality properties.

Pay cash.
