Thanks for the reply. This is very helpful info for my next purchase. I will take this into consideration and calculate the numbers to see if they still work with the repairs that need to be done.

Generally, everything is negotiable so even if it's godawful, I would likely just ask for it to be fixed or compensated for.

Drew Sygit. Not sure on tenant defaults. But this tenant right now is 100% subsidized by an agency, which is nice for the cash flow. Hoping the tenant can stay for years.

Just wondering what are some of you total no go's after you receive the inspection report back on a turn key property you have an accepted offer for? There seems to usually be something that needs fixing or updating when you buy it but how do you know when it's too much? I recently had an electrical panel that needed to be replaced that the inspector missed which ended up being $1,100. The A/c unit didn't work. Inspector couldnt test it out due to it being winter. These are some spendy things that were missed. Any opinions on things that would make you want to get out of the contract? Thanks!

Is this an out of state turn key? Or did you have to put some work into it? If it’s out of state I’d love to hear more about how you went about getting it inspected, if you built a team, etc. I live on Long Island, so investing out of state would be easier point of entry in terms of cost

Fairview is a solid location to invest in. The price to rent ratio is great and the neighborhood is next to the Miami Valley Golf Club.
Are you looking to purchase another SFH or move into MFHs?
Hey, that's good to hear thanks for the info. I'm looking at either sfh or mfh. Just trying to save up some cash before the next purchase and build up the emergency fund for this current property first before the next purchase. Whatever cashflows best is what I'm looking for. I would like to get into mfh here in the future. The house I bought at 2421 Elsmere ave Dayton, OH only cashflowed after I put 25% down on the house so I had to put a big down payment down. I need to be better at running the numbers on the my next house to better cash flow without putting my so much down.

Hi Mason, I have a neighborhood grade guide my team has been working on in Ohio. We regularly update it. A lot of investors prefer to stay in the C neighborhoods because that is where you get the best cash flow. Let me know how I can help!

Hey all, Im new to real estate investing and I'm interesting in single family homes up to 4 plexes right now. I live in Washington State where prices are pretty high so I'm looking at out of state investing and Dayton, OH has caught my eye. I bought one single family home in Dayton, OH in March. I'm interested in knowing if anyone knows good neighborhoods to buy rentals in. The house I bought is in Fairview neighborhood. Any thoughts? Anybody else doing the long distance thing that could give me some pointers? Thank you.
