Columbus has been pretty popular for investors since a lot of tech activity is happening here.

If you want to bet on this, you can wait for a couple years before doing your cash out refinance.  

I suspect my poor experience with Furnished Finder is because my units are very close to Harvard & MIT and, as such, are very popular with visiting scholars who are willing to pay top dollar for the amenities and location.

Due to to small location wouldn't necessarily bet on cap rate compression. 

It sounds like you're embarking on an exciting journey in real estate investing.Investing in the Pocono area for short-term rentals (STRs) can be a lucrative venture due to its popularity as a vacation destination.Take the time to thoroughly research the Pocono area's vacation rental market.

Sounds like being super proactive by picking out a place before selling the old one is a safe bet.

So it is a good long term bet (provided the socialists do not bankrupt you first).

The most popular sites for MTR besides Furnished Finder tend to be Airbnb, VRBO, and Zillow.

I bet a lot of new investors would love to hear how you got #2 and what’s your plan for #3

I've noticed some deals that include an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) and would like to know if these are popular in the area.
