JeffWe lead a couple investor meet up groups in person and live stream about the Central Ohio real estate market.

Just thank your deity that you don’t live in a rent controlled city/state.

I retired in my mid-50s and live a comfortable life, grateful every day for the path I chose.Looking back, I’m forever thankful to my partner who encouraged me to take that leap of faith and move to Ohio.

However, if you are profiting over 6 figures, the property might be too expensive to live in order to truly house hack.

They're investing tons of money into those areas, and attracting a lot of good renters who work in the medical profession and will pay good rents to live close to their jobs. 

At some point, the juice isn't worth the squeeze for us and we just want to enjoy life. 

Now, three years later, my tenant reported cracks in every room—paint cracking and full-line cracks in the bathroom, living room, and bedroom (walls, ceiling).A drywall contractor looked at it and said it’s normal wear and tear, but I’m concerned since it’s in every room.

While you are willing to work with them, they are apparently happy to live rent free and don't seem to care about you.I had a long term tenant (5 years) who stopped paying the rent.

Send me a message if you want to chat in more detail (background is in live in flips, LTR, MTR, and STR).  

They live in a semi HCOL area called Torrance (house is in a good zip code 90503).
