Investment Info:

Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $327,000
Cash invested: $75,487

My first investment property! 4 unit brick building with all 2br 1 ba units in C+ area of Cincinnati that is on the path to progress. Will be utilizing a "slow BRRRR" strategy to renovate building and units over the next 6 months - 1 year. Expected renovation costs of $40-$50K, which will allow me to get market rent of $1100-$1250/unit and expected monthly cash flow of $800-$900. Will likely do cash out refinance depending on market factors once updated to use towards next investment.
