You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

Short-term not allowed by city.Condition: Built in 1930, All units are updated, newer roof, new windows, new foundations, new sewer, new electric/plumbing.

Be careful with the foundations, the soil is sandier so it's common for shifting to occur which will affect the plumbing. 

For another we discovered the foundation was completely shot.Go check out the auction in person and sit there and watch.

I also like Schertz and Cibilo (just need to be careful with the foundation and checking it during the inspection period).

OROption 2: Go big and do a cash-out refi/203K/HELOC to not only repair the foundation and waterproofing, but to add an extension to the home that would support a legal duplex for some income producing property.

Hi @Mike Paolucci,I am local to Columbus and preparing foundation for investing at the moment.What has been your experience with short term rentals in Columbus and which neighborhoods are doing well?

This issue suggests possible foundation settlement or movement of foundation posts and/or beams, which could be indicative of significant structural issues.2.

Foundational blocks to get started.

This allows you to get fully immersed into the world and to start developing a solid foundation of information as you kick off your investments.
