Finding Balance Between the Golden Rule and the Almighty Dollar
Location aka "The Track"
Why Cincinnati and Dayton
The Track- To lean in the horse racing analogy, for any team to be successful my must understand if the track is Dirt, Turf or Synthetic. Some horse are faster on turf then they are on dirt. Well, the way we see it is the Cincinnati & Dayton market is becoming the first ever mixed material track. Many years ago Dayton was its own dirt track, Cincinnati was a grass track. However, due to the growth and popularity of the Cincinnati track it is now partially running on the Dayton track. A more direct way to say it is the Cincinnati and Dayton markets are collapsing into each other. Think Dallas and Ft Worth or the DMV (District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia) area around our nations capital. So as investors we realized this over 10 years ago and have vetted our theory. That theory being the prices for housing in the small towns between Dayton and Cincinnati, once a safe haven of affordable housing, will see significant price increases as demand grows. This theory has been confirmed to be true, we have seen strong and stable rent increase over the past 10 years and it has only picked up steam in 2024 and 2025. As the new built apartment inventory continues to shrink in Cincinnati in 2025 and 2026. The growth of the region will out pace available rentals, making this a strong growth market in the coming years. Beyond the growth, its is a Landlord friendly state that is solidly "red", with the state and local governments heavily incentivizing business development. We already operate in these markets we have actual property comps, we are on first name basis with many community leaders, we have existing relationships with contractors and beyond above all it is our home. We have driven the street and the neighborhoods and touched the properties and communities.

Our Operations aka "The Jockey"
The Property Management Company That Syndicates
At 70;00 Capital LLC, our philosophy is rooted in the belief that property management is the cornerstone of successful real estate investing. While many see real estate as simply owning assets, we see it as a dynamic race—one where the property is the racehorse, and we, as the property management team, are the jockey steering it to victory.
A racehorse, no matter how strong or fast, cannot win without a skilled jockey. Similarly, even the most promising property cannot deliver optimal returns without exceptional management. This is where we shine. As the jockey, we don’t just sit back and let the horse run—we guide, strategize, and make calculated decisions to ensure the best possible performance. Our role is to harness the potential of every property we invest in, using our expertise, local knowledge, and hands-on approach to maximize returns for our investors.
***How we view are role as the Jockey***
Unlike other jockeys (syndicators) our syndication team, is our asset management team and our property management team. While other Jockeys went to school to be a doctor or a lawyer, our team was learning how to ride horse and make them the fastest they can be. In that regard much like how a jockey understands their horse’s strengths and weaknesses, we pride ourselves on knowing our properties inside and out (because have are actually inside and out of them on a daily, heck hourly basis). Our vertically integrated structure allows us to stay in complete control of every aspect of property management and your asset. From maintenance and renovations to tenant relations and financial oversight, we are deeply involved in every step of the process. This hands-on approach ensures that no detail is overlooked and that each property operates at peak efficiency. Meaning we don't get caught off guard often and we know how the needle is being moved in your property .
Our in-house teams for property management, maintenance, and rehabilitation are the tools we use to guide our “racehorses.” These teams allow us to respond quickly to challenges, maintain the highest standards of quality, and ensure that our properties remain competitive in the market. By keeping everything under one roof, we eliminate the inefficiencies and miscommunications that often plague third-party management companies.
**Why Being the Jockey Matters**
In the world of real estate investing, the difference between mediocrity and excellence often comes down to property management. A property without strong management is like a racehorse left to wander aimlessly—it may have potential, but it will never reach it. At 70;00 Capital LLC, we don’t just let our properties “run the race.” We actively manage them, leveraging our 31+ years of real estate experience and our deep understanding of the Southwest Ohio market to ensure they perform at their best.
Our philosophy extends beyond simply maintaining properties; it’s about creating value. By focusing on the details—whether it’s a timely renovation, strategic tenant placement, or proactive maintenance—we enhance the performance of our properties, ultimately delivering stable and reliable returns for our investors. This level of care and attention is what sets us apart and allows us to consistently exceed expectations.
**The Racehorse and the Finish Line**
Every property is a racehorse, and every investor is a stakeholder in its journey. Our goal as the jockey is to ensure that each property not only finishes the race but does so in first place. We understand that our success is directly tied to the success of our properties and the satisfaction of our investors. That’s why we approach every project with the same level of commitment, passion, and expertise.
By prioritizing property management, we’ve built a reputation for delivering consistent results. Our investors trust us to guide their assets to victory, and we take that responsibility seriously. Just as a skilled jockey brings out the best in a racehorse, our property management philosophy brings out the best in every property we manage.
In a world where many focus solely on acquisition, we focus on execution. Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about owning the racehorse—it’s about having the right jockey to lead it to success. At 70;00 Capital LLC, we are that jockey, and we’re proud to lead the charge.
