Especially the first time something bad happens (and something bad will happen) such as an eviction, slap leak, collapsed sewer run, new roof, etc it could be challenging to see the positive of having a cash negative rental.Make sure you are mentally prepared to supplement this property for potentially years through some difficult events.good luck

heheI miss the Midwest's "simple" mentality of my common folks.Even tho, as you mentioned the weather can get brutal.It's always a tough gig to do deals from afar unless buying turnkey.Even then, turnkey is not worth it unless the portfolio is big.As soon as you can, move to the market you want to invest in and with time you might become "institutionalized" to it just like I did with Toledo hahaI put Ohio Cashflow on the back burner 3 years ago as I got burnt out on working with investors lolWe only sell from time to time to our existing book of business and if I like the specific investor hahaI list most deals on the MLS and once sold, I clean my hands.No need to babysit the never satisfied and disgruntled landlords expecting retirement from 1 turnkey property...Unfortunately, it is what it is and I ate $#@% for many years before I said enough is enough heheOz Realty has been the bread and butter for us and our main focus since we shifted focus.Crazy that I'm even typing this as I hated PM for many years and considered it just as the "necessary evil" in order to offer a turnkey product.Now, if I could turn back time, I'd never do turnkey and would only do PM hehe.Everything happens for a reason mate.Granted, it took 7+ years to create a lean and efficient PM machine heheI'm in Toledo every month for 7-10 days so feel free to hit me up whenever you are in town.All the best mate 🙏 @Engelo Rumora , haha, a new book would be valid for sure, as things do change fast in this world, looking forward to it.

A lot of them don’t want to commit or have already mentally moved on, so they just avoid the conversation altogether.I definitely wouldn’t go knock on the door like Benjamin suggested.

That means:🚫 No posting on social media🚫 No blasting your deal to an email list of strangers🚫 No promoting your syndication on a podcastThe SEC is clear: “No general solicitation or advertising to market the securities.”If you want to publicly advertise, you’d need to use Rule 506(c)—which requires investor verification and limits you to accredited investors only.🚨 Warning: If you advertise a 506(b) deal publicly, your entire offering could be invalidated, leading to legal consequences.2.
