Re Akron and Cleveland: Ohio real estate taxes are absolutely brutal. A $150K house in Cleveland pays about $3,600 annually in taxes, which is going to take a massive bite out of your $1,400 monthly tenant payment in an affordable rental area like Cleveland Heights. Add another $70 per month for insurance, $130 for a property manager (based on a standard 10% management fee) and the monthly mortgage payment ($700 based on 20% down and 6% interest on a $150K investment property), and the cash flow is reduced to the point of, "why bother?" Clearing $200-250 per month is not going to cover many big-ticket repairs. Roofing issues, snow removal, tree trimming, and any minor repairs for the HVAC, refrigerator, garage-door opener, garbage disposal, dishwasher and the rest means you very reasonably could lose money for the year. Since property appreciation is virtually nil in this area, what's the point? Ten years later, the tenants will have paid down your mortgage balance some, but the price of the house will have increased in single digits. Tread carefully.

Cleveland Heights isn't a neighborhood you cashflow in. Also Cleveland Heights has a different Tax code than Cleveland, the taxes, water and sewer or significantly higher. You need to look into area like North Collinwood, Cudell, Linndale, Old Brooklyn. Anything is The City of Cleveland has low taxes. I recommend not putting things like dishwashers and garbage disposals in your rentals it's not matter of will it break down it's a matter of when will it breakdown. Also all my private tenants (non section 8) have to buy their own appliances because when the appliance breaks down it's not my appliance it's theirs.... Call me what you will it's just basic psychology.

Thank you!!

Love all of your videos. Thank you

Dave should mention that the year on year price appreciation percentages should be considered an anomaly just like the RTP ratios in 2010-2012. Covid had a huge positive impact on these markets and it's still too early to tell what the fallout might be.

I LOVED this video! I am part of a small group of investors who are eager to work together. I like the price point on those areas and I think it's worth look into it. Where my husband and I buy a SFH is near 400K, a two family close to 800K. Next group monthly meet up I will propose to talk about how can we buy together a property in one of those areas and learn how to work as a team. Thank you for delivering value content as usual!

Great video. We LOVE Metro Detroit. Best price/rent ratio in the country. For note, we find the best balance is in slightly better location coming in more around the 1.2-1.4% rule rather than chasing the 2% rule in D markets. Those 2-3% deals in rough areas is what gives Detroit a bad reputation. But buy the 1.3% rule deal in a B market and enjoy a nice location with solid cash flow and growth for a long time.

I for one appreciate the fact that you're not wearing a "wife beater" or tank top, with your hat backwards, and cheap mirrored sunglasses while annoyingly walking down a street filming yourself. But I do have a question that's bugged me for a while. I'll use fake round numbers. If you buy a house for $100,000 and you rent it for $1000/month - boom 1% rule. So the house increases over time to $200,000 and you rent it for $1500/month. Is that now a 1.5% rule house or .75%? Thanks again for the videos!

Rent to price ratio. One month's rent divided by sales price. It's useful because it gives you a quick idea of whether a property can cash flow or not. However, taxes, insurance and maintenance vary by market so RTP does not give you the entire answer

In the current market* I think a 5/1 are could be potentially be the right call for you. Especially when going into a sweat equity deal in a market your confident will continue to grow in value..regardless if rates are higher or lower..you SHOULD refinance roughly ever 5 years anyways to pull out your equity and compound your wealth. With what you’ve listed for context..casting a vote of validation to take the 5/1 arm and refinance in 5 years. With this strategy, pay as little points as possible. Your always trying to keep as much cash in pocket and as little cash in the deal as possible to maximize roi.

I am pretty sure these lists completely leave out tax implications. Milwaukee and Orland park have bad taxes and there is no way the pencil out that well if that is considered.

I remember they were saying they thought there would not be a market crash and that seems where we are heading

Have you accounted for the real estate taxes in your calculation ? E.g. Detroit has one of the highest property tax rates in the country. With a millage of around 88 for an investment home, a property of $200,000 would incur a tax bill of about ~$17k. Even if the tax assessed value is 50% of the actual home value, the bill will still be around $8.5k which is about $700/month. That would affect the numbers tremendously.

Here’s a great start to find the cash flow- Is it a red or blue state/ region? Not always the case but overwhelmingly is the case. Avoid the blue states/ regions like the plaque. Even the positive cash flow areas still standing will eventually turn to the low hanging fruit of regulation and take it from you.
