I hope the comparative market analysis I just sent over view email helps.

Would be interesting to hear experiences others have had..The expectation for rent being used to help build credit has slowly grown over the years.

@Jaycee Greene I’ve contacted big banks small local banks and I haven’t quite tried credit unions although I have 2 credit unions for which I have accounts (but my experience is that they aren’t offering that much better terms).

Force yourself to be as concise as possible and to limit the size of the pitch deck, investors will appreciate this and will likely view you as more credible if you include all of the key data i.e.

And stop trolling, it's not cute, it doesn't win view's, it will win you ban's.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience in Columbus, Ohio.

My view is probably a fallacy as I have not factored in closing costs, home repairs, and the down payment into the equation.

I currently have 2 rentals in the Atlanta area, and for the past 2 years, both have been Section 8 rentals, and I have to say that the experience has not been as bad as the horrors stories I heard.

Alternatively i could go for being a real estate broker and try to get experience in actual real estate without putting too much of my own skin in the game.

A $200,000 duplex might have identical rents in municipality “A” and municipality “B” but the property tax rates will vary, local regulations will dictate licensing requirements, labor rates will vary & the particular location will dictate insurance premiums since insurance carriers will weigh local replacement costs and whether the municipality is viewed as being a “plaintiff friendly” in arriving at insurance premiums.Better situated assets will attract better tenants.
