Ep 200 - Positive Cash Flow on 5% Down Rehab Properties in Ohio
You’ve seen our offerings for 5% down on new builds in Alabama and Florida over the past several months. This allows you to get into a property for significantly less money than normal and scale your portfolio. The downside is that you’re negative several hundred dollars a month on most of those properties.
But what if you could get into a property for 5% down and be break even or even positive cash flow?
Adam Schroeder talks with the Ohio rehab team leader about the opportunity for this in the market. The two discuss what’s happening in the area that is causing rent growth and appreciation, as well as what incentives are being offered to protect investors from unexpected maintenance costs that people worry about with rehabs.

Adam Schroeder talks with Ben Nelson, host of The Everyday Real Estate Investor, about his start to his investing career, how he knew when it was time to change his investing strategy, how he vets out markets, his criteria for determining whether a property is worth his time, avoiding shiny object syndrome, and more.
