Affordable relative to the rest of the US so great place to work remote or just enjoy a reasonable life without being hugely cost burdened Cons: A lot of older than 1980s construction (you 100% can be successful with these properties just have more to check during due diligence) Need to be mindful of market rents in the area and not overspend on renovations where there is not ROI to do so, you can’t usually exceed $2 sf on rental rates and average price per sf is 1.25-1.5 sf (neighborhood, unit type, and finish level specific).KC is not a boom and bust market, you don’t get the high highs or the low lows.

Have some real estate under my belt but looking into Short term rentals opposed to long term rentals.Wondering if there is a stand out book to read to gain understanding for Australian Short Term rental market/AIRBNB.Also if there is a specific group for Australians and short term rentals for Australian market/Australian tax system etc, do point me to that.Rod

Also, consider creating a JV agreement for the specific opportunity you and your new found partner decide to pursue!

@Jefferey EutsayIs there a specific aspect of this deal that you are hoping to get advice on?

I actually read Cameron Herold's "Vivid Vision" and wrote our business vision out on a mountain in Arizona...you can still see that vision on our website today!

So I am not tied to a specific area.

anything more specific?

Are there specific military programs or contacts I should look into for housing opportunities?

As for Columbus, it’s a growing market with potential for strong rental demand, but make sure to research specific neighborhoods, local market trends, and the level of competition to ensure you’re making a smart investment.
