However, the whole point of making money is to live a better life, which includes caring for family. taking care of our parents is I suspect not even a twinkle of thought to most of the BP members that are on this site and 45 and under..

If this is something that interest you, then I think I could be a good resource for you. 

As a realtor who works closely with both short-term and long-term rental investors, I’d love to be a resource for you while you’re in town.Having spent my entire life here, I know the city inside and out (Indianapolis) , from neighborhoods with strong rental demand to up-and-coming areas that offer excellent long-term growth potential. 

Feel free to track on the site above or if not, I'll post again with an update in a few weeks time as they get closer to some sort of proposal.  

What was your greatest resource when starting?

I'd be happy to connect with you and will keep an eye out for resources I think we can both take advantage of.Best,Marc  Will do!!

Happy to send over some resources regarding the Columbus Ohio market and why it's a great market to invest into!

To help support that avatar, try and have on-site parking and ideally a place where a large work truck can be parked without issue (think fully decked out F-350). 

I flew there and walked the house, looked pretty turnkey rental grade): $1029 GFCI outlets, downspouts and guards, drywall, paint, bathroom vent$4615 (new AC unit since unit was stolen before tenant moved in, didn't file insurance claim because didn't want my premium to go up) $600 (water line, gas line, P trap)$60 lawn mowing$112  thermostat repairMy opinion is that Class C is better for local investors who are on site and know how to do repairs and self manage.

Any advice or resources you can point to?
