Hey Milton, I'm located in the Lake County area of NWI and would be happy to help with anything I can.

Any particular reason you are targeting Peru for forced appreciation?

Just my terrible voice to text typos using my phone lol. Realtor who is investor friendly, meaning said Realtor knows what they are talking about with investment properties. Typically, if they know what they are talking about they would have their own portfolio.

So just ask them if they own rentals themselves. Do they manage them themselves? Do they lease them themselves? How do they do it? Can you show me how to do it?

If you can't get them to show you investment properties and run simple return on investment numbers for you move on.

Definitely networking for one. Picking up the phone. Call any and all the local real estate companies and ask them to put you in touch with an investor friendly Realtor.

If the realtor has a portfolio themselves and is willing to spend time/energy with you. That is a great start.

As far as bringing value. I've been asked this a few times as real estate friendly investor. Watching people become suscessful is very rewarding in itself and especially when it's partial because I stepped in to help.

We are performance pay. Investor friendly Realtors want you to succeed so we can continue to do business. Plain and simple.

Pick up the phone and dial. That's your homework for today 👍 The best Realtors work the weekends as well so don't be shy.

Absolutely, Northwest Indiana.  Fantastic opportunities.  Would be happy to have a conversation.  

@Chris James Hariski

What's the motivation for just these two markets?

@Ally Mager

Interested in Indiana? Red state very landlord friendly

@Krista Burke

Happy to help, I'll dm you

@Bradley Payne

Have you made any progress yet?

Considering VRBO in Saint Pete to give us an excuse to travel more and add to the portfolio. Looking for a realtor, not a salesperson. If you know one who can crunch numbers and knows the local market very well I'm interested. PM me.

Cheers and thank you in advance.

Call me optimistic, but there is a lot private investors putting money into Gary. Not just Miller Beach area. I do believe over the next ten years there will be dramatic improvements in many areas of Gary and there will be appreciation. There are a lot of opportunities there. I wouldn't look at the "headaches" as road blocks. If you want to buy & hold, make sure the numbers are accurate and get a great property management company to do the vetting and handle the day to day.
