Ohio: older housing stock, real rehab numbers
Many Ohio cities have older housing stock, and that shapes fire damaged deals. Older houses can have older wiring, plaster, and layered materials that you want your contractor to look at before you set a repair budget.
Ohio investors often buy for rentals and holds as well as flips. A deal priced below after-repair value gives you room for either plan, once your own numbers check out.
What to check on an Ohio fire damaged house
Basements are common in Ohio houses. After a fire, check them for water from firefighting and for damage to the utilities that often sit there. Also check the roof and framing above the fire area, since heat can weaken structure you cannot see from the floor.
Wholesale and wholetail in Ohio
Wholesale means we have the property under contract and you take over that contract. Wholetail means we own the property and sell it to you below retail. In both cases the price is set below what the house is worth after repair, and you run your own numbers before you commit. We verify your funds before any contract is signed.
