The Cincinnati real estate market continues to be a top ranking area for investing because of its relative affordability, economic growth and centralized location.
Whether seasoned or novice, or looking to grow your portfolio, the buy & hold strategy may be just right for your next deal.
Pros of Buy & Hold
Monthly returns
Long-term appreciation as the property value increases with time
Numerous tax deductions on anything from mortgage interest to appliance depreciation to capital improvements
Real estate can offer your portfolio some protection as inflation increases
Picking the "Right" Property to Hold
This is a long-term strategy, so your focus is on income production, whether from traditional or short-term rental. The property will appreciate over the course of your ownership, so the big payoff will come at the eventual sale. In the meantime, there is passive income to be gained while you hold the property.
Choose a location where rentals are in demand
Envision the property from a renter's perspective...will this be rented to a family, empty nesters, etc. (typically the more rooms the higher the rent)
Perform a rental analysis to ensure the property will cash flow (see our blog What You Need to Know About Rental Pro Formas (springvalleybank.com) for in depth detail)
Determine the amount of repair needed and how the repair will be financed. More often than not, there is more value add in purchasing a property that needs repairs which is why the BRRR method is so popular. Additionally, the better the property condition the more rent can be charged.
Negotiate the price based on the bottom line and condition of the property
