This process keeps it clean and professional, unemotional, and doesn't put anyone in my office in danger.A couple more tips:Always be aware of your surroundings and the risk presented by the circumstances and the other party;If there is even a slight risk of the tenant getting angry, bring a witness.If you can't bring a witness, bring protection;Don't enter the home of a bad tenant where they can secretly attack;Men should never enter a rental with a female when there is ANY kind of conflict because it sets him up for a claim of harassment or assaultThese safety tips are true for unpaid rent or eviction, but should also be followed any time there is any issue that can cause stress or anger for the renter.

Now, I am terrified of checking the mail for fear that there's some other screw up thanks to some moron lender, some idiot insurance agent or some half-wit real estate agent.

It's best not to accuse the kids first.

It will take a while before we see inflation come down again to 2-3%, probably years.We are witnessing the biggest devaluation of debt in the last 40 years as the dollar is losing value.

Every time I tell people the steps on how to do it, I get accused of "selling" something.Therefore I left it up to you to ask me questions and I will answer.

Ah the classic troll accusation to bring more credence to your own argument so you don't have to bring as much substance to your own. 

Quote from @Ahmed Alswaiti: The real estate market in Ohio has been witnessing higher trends far from what it was before, especially when it comes to cities likeToledo, Cincinnati, Columbus, and Cleveland.

Hi Kevin,I'm a big fan of buying with cash and my thought process is quite contrary to everyone else's.Cash is KingCashflow is QueenLeverage can be a peasant lolOne can retire investing in Toledo with $1m in cash.Off-course, this all depends on how many villages you need to feed 🤓I have too many "villagers" on my back so it's a bit of a different story for me.Sub $100,000 markets like Toledo require volume to work and to be worth the risk if you are looking to buy and hold.Not much growth potential long term so I would consider it a strict cashflow play.Start slow and small and you can always scale up once you learn the market.Or call it quits and exit if you decide it's not for you.IMO, leverage should only be used to scale a portfolio and only after you have immersed yourself enough in a specific market.And only once you have decided that you want to stick around in that specific market and invest in it long term.Over the years, I've witnessed many folks use leverage and attempt BRRRR out of state only to fall short and say "the market sucks and it doesn't work".Nothing works unless you make it work and a market like Toledo can work better than any other market I know from a cashflow perspective.I've been investing since 2014 and flipped hundreds along with currently managing 400 SFH.Only this year have I started buying small multifamily properties.It's an adjustment and a different animal but let's just say it's in the same breed of animal lolImmerse yourself in a specific market and become an "expert" on the numbers in that market.Find off market deals, negotiate hard, buy with cash and buy quickly.You make money when you buy and not when you sell so you must buy cheap.There are many ways to skin a cat mate and this is how I get my fur lolWishing you much success

Thank you I think it's a little over the top to accuse the OP of lying.

Still at it mate,Just walking now and not running.My knees can't take the running anymore and I have witnessed what the quiet life is like in Europe for a few years so that mentality is still engraved.Although, this amazing place still pulls a man's will for more hehe
