Does anyone have experience collecting rent from a tenant you received a judgement from due to an eviction. I have called a few debt collectors and they all tell me that I need their social security number, is this true?

Thanks,


Adam

For an ARV of 200k I would look at Riverside.

STR/MTR market is pretty strong I would generally say from my experience doing STR most of your bookings will come from the weekends. Indianapolis hosts a lot of events so people travel into town for all sorts of conventions.

MTR market is also strong as we have a lot of hospitals downtown as well as traveling professionals who need furnished housing.

Post: To sell or to HELOC

@Mathew Morford I would probably lean towards accessing a HELOC if you can get favorable terms. What I like about the HELOC regardless of whether you use it or not is that it doesn't cost you anything to have(besides a nominal setup fee usually) but then you are able to use it at your discretion. Second, if you sell your current house and tap into that equity you still have to buy another house for your primary which seems like a lot of work, you're going to be buying both houses(primary & rental) at higher interest rate than you bought your primary in 2021. Third, you probably have a great interest rate that I would not want to give up unless a screaming deal came along.

If you can access 30-50k from your HELOC you should be able to put that as a down payment on another investment property, just don't forget to factor in this extra payment in your ROI calculations for the rental.

Like others have mentioned that seems pretty cheap but if the area is good and there are no major renovations or deferred maintenance(e.g. old furnace, water heater) that would be cost prohibitive to you in the first few years of owning it, it seems it could be a good opportunity. 

Post: Selling a house: Price aggressively or let it sit for 90 days?

I would try to price the home at a price that makes sellers excited to purchase your house, oftentimes agents may list the home at a price below what they actually think it will sell for so they get multiple offers and then do a highest and best which usually results in reaching your expected sale price or sometimes more. The worst thing to have is a house on the market for a long period of time because like others have mentioned it does get stigmatized, buyers think maybe something is wrong with it etc. So I always recommend trying to price aggressively so you have multiple offers which equals multiple options for you to pick from and you can get the buyers to bid amongst themselves for the house which is a good problem to have :)
