@Nicholas Nakamurain order to be successful, you will need to build a network on the ground in Ohio with people you know and trust. buying a random property on the MLS in unknown condition based on other people looking at it, and putting it under management with people you have never met, will not work, and you will lose money.https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/963/topics/1195280-expe...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1137397-balti...so - what's your plan? 

I’ve been coaching new investors for a while, and I always enjoy hearing about what brings people to real estate.

People will rent homes in that area because they cannot yet afford to buy, but hope to buy a newer home in the future and keep the kids in the same school system and around their same friends.

that OR consider buying a property you could short-term rent to people who literally just want to visit the casino if it's a large/decent one. 

And people were signing up left and right.  

@Adedayo Adetunji people that break into a property & occupy it are called "squatters".On September 24, 2014, three new Michigan Statutes went into effect to make squatting a crime and give landlords more options to remove them (see Michigan HB 5069/PA223, HB 5070/PA224, HB 5071/PA225).

We cannot wait to help more people build generational wealth through real estate this year!!

I’d recommend listening to the straight up Chicago investor podcast for local information, going to the variety of meetups that are in this great city, and meeting a lot of the people posting here. 

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.

I’ve been in this space for a long time, coaching and investing, and I love helping people get started.
