We were just there last weekend for the illuminations.

I also plan to illuminate the sign of the bldg.

They are very useful and illuminate leaks in my plan.

But that's not going to help you other than illuminating the options.

To everyone illuminating the OP about depreciation - why talk about depreciation without mentioning depreciation recapture?

I'll default to a savvy local like @Remington Lyman to illuminate Ohio specifics, but in general I'd pay attention to the following on investment properties:Sewer line -- these are hidden and I want to make sure they are healthy OR I have a budget for replacement right awayHVAC - have the heating and air units been well maintained? 

I wanted to illuminate at least some risks and wanted to buy decent property in some good neighborhood in the market that would look much better then my local market.

The knowledge gained here has emboldened me to move out of my comfort zone and grow as an individual and as an investor.I just wanted to express my appreciation for the people around here for illuminating and guiding my way along.

@Theresa HarrisI work 7 days a week, 12 hours a day.It does happen.Proper notice may need to be illuminated by a judge.

Depending on how thorough the inspections are, it can definitely illuminate items that you overlooked at the initial walk through.
