I live in Zanesville and work in Newark area. I realize you have a realtor already but if you  ever get into the Zanesville market I would be glad to help.

Great chatting with you.

Good deal, what made you invest in the Newark area?  I am assuming your out of state since your profile shows Maryland. I am an agent also in Zanesville and have been helping another investor from the Atlanta area. He was originally from Zanesville.

I also have my own rental units all in the Zanesville area. Property investment is the best gig around!

Tobey, I am also from the Zanesville area. Who is managing your properties in Newark, Oh?

Call an equipment rental company called Sunbelt Rentals. They can give you the names of regulars who rent from them.

I also end up going with my gut many times in the end. I have 36 units all in a lower end of town. My rents average 400-650 and the applicants are not A-B class tenants. Generally most have stories and records and  I am forced to make a gut decision. I just stay on top of them and post the 3 day notice day 1 their late and enforce the late charges out of the gate. It is extremely hard to stay within income guidelines since many of my tenants income are lower end. I do limit my rentals to a max of 2 people per bedroom so I can eliminate a family of 8 trying to rent a 3 bedroom.

When I was 12 I had a paper route in White Cottage, Ohio. I spent most of my money on music CD's back then. If I only knew then what I know now!

Michele Cotner, good see a local on here. Not looking for any help just looking to see if there were any local investors from Zanesville on here. Do you have rentals in this area?

Haven't been on BP in awhile. Anyone from or close to the Zanesville, Ohio area? I am up to 36 units now and just received my real estate brokers license. Moving along!

The best real estate education you can get,and it's free!

My first deal was 10 years ago off the MLS. I purchased a duplex directly from another investor. I paid way to much for it and had horrible bank terms, but the knowledge I gained through that deal was worth every penny!
