If it is a good business with a hard to finance issue, he'll work with the loan team to figure out how to lend to them.

I wouldn't touch anything outside the urban core. if your strategy is to buy existing and old I'd recommend not to. as a newer investor depending on your liquidity look at build to rent development. building investment properties below market value by 25% and refinancing out of it to do it again. the urban core has tax abatements as well that are 15 years right now you can apply for. that means that taxes will be around $600 to $800 per year. there's cash Flow but the existing inventory market dried up a few years ago in the urban core. local realtors are going to push you to the trash areas like hilltop, south linden, etc because it's the only place numbers work. columbus is great, but remember a tenant who pays $1800 a month is different than a tenant who pays $900 a month. let me know if I can help any other way! 

He contacted me, and I'm wondering how trustworthy he is as well.

I am looking to purchase real estate for both investment purpose as well as to offset as much tax liability as possible. 

We have been quite successful hosting Murder Mystery Weekends as well.

So if we have a $475 bill for an owner you could click on that amount and see the invoice/bill that's associated with it and get some more information.

Especially about validating information.
