Hello, I am an out of state investor from California looking at the Ohio Market, I was wondering what would be best practices to get financing for deals less than 70k, banks and lenders I have contacted have mentioned they dont finance deals that low. Also, if the ARV is near 100 would using hard/private money work and then refinancing? I am assuming it would be smart to have that discussion with a bank/lender if they were going to be able to refinance before doing so.
My go to lender will be able to do this. Would love to send an introduction for you.
I find myself in the same boat. I'll reach out to you.
Thanks for your input, @Chris Seveney. The numbers were really great. I lost out on the deal though because my offer was a few hours late. I'm really grateful to all the numerous lenders who reached out. I know exactly where to go when next I need hard money. The support from you all is much appreciated.

Hey @Vannel Dzigba,
have you considered a hard money lender like www.kiavi.com or someone comparable?
Hello BP Nation,
I'm working out a great MF deal in Cleveland, OH and would need a hard money lender on board. It's a 100% cash-only deal.
Further details are available on request. Please reach out to me ASAP and let's make this happen.
Cheers!

Hey Vannel, I'm a local investor and agent here in Columbus, Ohio. I own quite a few investment properties. I love Columbus, Ohio because of, like many others here have said, there's an amazing combination of cash flow and appreciation. If you want strictly cash flow, Cleveland is definitely better. But if you want amazing, cash flow and appreciation, Columbus is an awesome choice. Plus, it's the only city in the rust belt that the population is growing and Intel is building a gigafactory here so it's a huge population and job growth catalyst. I just helped a client close on a 26% CoC deal here in Columbus so there are still tons of amazing deals here. If you have any questions or need help with the Columbus market, would love to help!
Thanks for the input Jimmy! Let's connect and take the discussion further.
