Oh the lessons learned. 

Like its guaranteed, no brainer, and oh I will also teach you how to do this.I would be curious to hear from others who are in syndications right now not doing well and ask the questions:What was the advertised return and how is that compared to the industry?

I invest here in Columbus, Ohio and I can help refer you the CORE 4 that you need: Agent, PM, Contractor, and Attorney.

We were thinking of buying in Columbus, OH, Indianapolis, IN and Salt Lake city.

Any recommendations?

Oh, and while Illinois does have a large exodus of people, I'm still not sure I'd recommend Indiana because of the savings in taxes or even friendly landlord law.

I own some multifamily homes in Akron and Canton, OH, all MLS deals.
