In partnership with
Happy Thursday,
Last week we hosted our Happy Hour - and wow, what a turnout! Thank you to everyone who made it out. I saw some real connections forming and plenty of production-level networking happening, which is exactly why we host these events. Deals are done in community, not isolation - and these spaces exist to create those collisions.
☕ Coffee & Connect
Thursday, October 23 · 7:30–9:00 AM EDT
To be honest, I think Coffee Connect is going to become even bigger than our Masterclass events over time. Here’s the flow for this month’s gathering:
7:30a | Doors open + 30 minutes of networking
8:00a | Grab a seat at your table
8:05a | Keynote: Jeremy Tallman shares how he grew his portfolio to 100+ doors and scaled management to 1,000+ units
8:40a | Breakout session → sharpening discussion question at your table
9:00a | Open networking opportunity
This isn’t just another event—it’s the beginning of something bigger. Starting in 2026, Coffee & Connect will fully replace our Happy Hours and become the heartbeat of an exclusive Indy investor group. Reply back to this email for more information.
💡 Big Bonus: Attend one Coffee Connect, and you’ll get access to our private WhatsApp group. That’s where we drop exclusive opportunities, off-market conversations, and real-time connections you won’t find anywhere else.

Property #1: Indy Duplex Deal: Fully Renovated + High-Demand Location
625 & 627 W 39th St, Indianapolis, IN 46208
Full Breakdown | Off Market Property Photos | BiggerPockets Analysis
Asking Price: $220K
Why I Like This Deal:
Location, location, location. This duplex sits in an incredible spot and has already been recently renovated, so you can expect lower capex needs upfront.
Market Rents:
Each side is a 1 bed / 1 bath, rented for $1,000 each ($2,000 total monthly income).
Property #2: Strong Growth Area + Built-In Cash Flow
3502 N Kenwood Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46208
Full Breakdown | View on Zillow | BiggerPockets Analysis
Asking Price: $230K
The property has been on the market since July without a price drop. The agent shared they recently put $10K into cleaning it up. I still lean toward a more favorable offer structure around $225,000 with $15,000 in credits—and that’s what I used to run my numbers.
Why I Like This Deal:
Strong growth trajectory in this area.
Provides cash flow from day one.
Market Rents:
Total Market Rent = $2,520
Unit 1: Tenanted at $1,270 (3 bed / 1 bath)
Unit 2: Vacant (3 bed / 1 bath)

Property #3: Turn This Duplex into a $2,000/Month Performer with Light Updates
33–35 N Catherwood Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46219
Full Breakdown | Old Zillow Listing | BiggerPockets Analysis
Asking Price: $175K
Why I Like This Deal:
Strong location on a great street—this one doesn’t disappoint for a duplex.
No active competition right now.
Seller is in the process of turning the vacant unit.
Clear value-add play: Seller owns a contracting company, and my angle would be to buy at $200K with a $25K credit back for improvements (floors, fixtures, paint). That’s the basis for my analysis.
Market Rents:
Unit 33 (Vacant): ~$1,100/mo with light cosmetic updates (2 bed / 1 bath)
Unit 35 (Tenanted): $900/mo (2 bed / 1 bath)
Total Potential = $2,000/mo
