I would say the posts concerning the 1600 block of N 27th Street is a good case study of where NOT to buy if that's your objective.

We don’t feel these are necessary, especially considering that the property already passed inspection when we bought it.We're concerned that we might be getting taken advantage of, and that these costs are inflated or unnecessary.

Any concerns? 

We explored the idea of allowing it but for only 6months, but we think once the person is there for that long we can't enforce signed language about an exit date.I do not understand these concerns:1.

The cost wasn't my concern.

Thanks, SteveI'm more concerned about the possibility of active termites than the cost to repair existing damage.

Which is not necessary and a little tricky legally, but she certainly has enough money to pay their rent so that is not my concern. 

Of course, this would be while working with a knowledgeable investor agent.I'm just concerned that possibly due to Columbus' popularity on BiggerPockets and elsewhere, the market may have been saturated with investors, turn key providers. 

It always gives me cause for concern because there is not a lot of recourse if they damage the property after closing.

Your content and marketing should meet their concerns and goals.
