Investment Info:

Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $440,000
Cash invested: $300,000
Sale price: $1,100,000

I bought this home with my brother in 2009, I bought him out a few years later I began renting it out in 2017 and just recently sold it.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

It was an amazing deal, I never planned on renting it out but it netted me between $4,000 a month and up to $5200 a month the lat year and a half.

    That's a nice return! Have you done any other investments and do you have any strategies you plan to follow when it comes to investing in the future?

    the money is currently in an account getting me 5% untill i make a decision...  I'm looking at investing out of california at nevada, ohio, alabama, arkansas maybe florida...  Trying to find that 1% RTP, after now losing the $5200 a month I was getting.  The property was owned with no debt so it was all cash flow.  I want to find something that will be the same situation... My friends in Toledo are getting are getting 1% monthly RTPS on almost all of their 22 investment properties there...  the only downside is the appreciation outside of California sucks.

    Very nice!  Look into Montgomery, AL.  Second lowest property taxes in the nation behind Hawaii.

    Montgomery county tax estimate formula is: appraised value x 20% (without homestead) x .0365

     I can understand that. Afterall, the midwest states are known for their cashflow but also the potential for slower appreciation. Overall, if that fits your desired situation, Toledo could be a great place to reinvest!

    Did someone mention "Toledo"? haha

    Toledo is a cashflow and volume play.

    It's a slow mover during boom cycles and takes 10+ years to catch up to other markets when it comes to appreciation but eventually it does.

    Just like it did the last few years when folks ran out of deals on the East Coast and West Coast.

    Everyone started stampeding Toledo.

    Happy to have everyone tho so keep coming 🙏
