Post: You're gonna Evict 41% of these kinds of Tenants in Detroit

Some people think a tenant's credit score doesn't matter. Those people are stupid. A tenant's credit score is one of the most important things landlords need to look at. If you aren't running a credit check on your tenants, you're going to be evicting people left and right. This is especially true in the Detroit real estate market. In Detroit, the probability of a tenant defaulting on their rent payments and needing to be evicted can range from as low as 1% to as high as 41% based on their credit score. When you are doing tenant screening, make sure you run a credit check on all prospective tenants. Go to LogicalPM.com to learn more about managing rental properties in Detroit, Michigan.

I'm currently in the process of closing on my very first duplex! I put a lot of time into putting a small team together because I'm an out-of-state investor.

One thing I haven't put any time into is relationships with other Cleveland investors. It's important to me to know other like-minded people with similar goals, who are going through similar things...so I would love to meet some other Cleveland investors to hear about your portfolios and experiences in Cleveland (especially those in the 44102 zip). 

Comment or message me!

I want to start BRRRing in Cleveland and would like to connect with experienced investors. I currently own 2 properties in Cleveland and live in Los Angeles, CA.  Please reach out.  I am looking to get contractor referrals who work well with investors - fair and fast.  I'm nervous to do these sort of deals with private money loans - have you done that or used your own money?  Thanks! 


 Holla.

my service includes first property closed on that I find is free and then after if you are satisfied with the service we can work on pricing. 


 You know you need a real estate license to do that right?

In ohio you need a license to do things such as negotiate prices, represent buyers and sellers, and sign contracts, but my service is property scouting so finding properties (off market, etc) for investors as well as finding potential clients that are looking to buy and or sell that are looking for a realtor. My services are based off of flat rate fees meaning, for every lead I generate or deal an investor closes on I get a fee (not a percentage), and if I find someone needing a realtor and I referred them then I charge a flat rate fee as well.


 It's right there in Section 4735.01 of the ORC.

@Steve K., for clarity is proposing the following three step plan to become a millionaire in just a single year:

Step 1: Start with $2M in real estate equity.

Step 2: Sell it and exchange it for crypto.

Step 3: Wait 1 year, become a millionaire.


 Haha so are you saying the easiest way to have $1M in crypto is to start with $2M? 


 I mean,  I would agree with that.

When you're living in a tenant friendly state like New Jersey you might think all the tenant friendly landlord tenant laws will make your life easier. That's not always the case. When evicting a squatter becomes to difficult to do through the court system, some New Jersey landlords resort to secret illegal eviction tactics like releasing bed bugs in their tenant's homes.

Post: Hiring an Experienced Appraiser in Cleveland, OH

Quote from @Bailey Coleman:

Hey BP community,

We're looking to hire a skilled appraiser in Cleveland who understands real estate investing, especially cash-out refinances. We need someone who can accurately assess value based on renovations, ARV, and investment potential. A strong understanding of distressed properties, BRRRR, and flips is a must.

If you know a great appraiser who fits the bill, please drop their info or DM me. Looking to build a long-term relationship!

Thanks!


 I recently had a duplex go under contract twice, and fall out of contract twice. This happened over a period just shy of 2 months. The 1st buyer's appraiser appraised the property at $97,000. The 2nd buyer's appraiser appraised the same property less than 2 months later for $75,000.

In short, appraisers are usually just dudes who couldn't make it as Brokers. Myself, I've sold over $200 Million in real estate. If you need someone who can accurately assess value based on renovations, ARV, and investment potential etc.... CLICK HERE and I can do it for you for a price point that's even less than a typical appraisal.

Post: Why do the Section 8 Tenants in Boston live like Savages?

Why can't the Section 8 tenants in Boston clean their houses? Why do these savages live like this? They are on Section 8, they are living off the taxpayer's dollar. They aren't going to work like the rest of us. Why can't they take the time to clean up after themselves? You're in for a rough ride if you're going to invest in Section 8 rental properties in Boston, Massachusetts. Tune in to HoltonWiseTV to learn how to survive investing in Section 8 housing in the Boston real estate market.
