yes - many of our clients are invested internationally with us (we are STRLocator), specifically in Tulum and Cancun.I’m happy to try answering your specific questions.Quote from @Hannah Tate: All, I am looking for some advice from anyone who has had experience investing in short term vacation rentals internationally.

HI, I would definitely say Ohio because people (clients) from all over the world is investing in real estate.

I have a client keeping an eye out for properties here. 

Feel free to DM if interested and I'm happy to help.Competition is tougher than ever, we're requesting all our clients budget $2-$3k per year minimum in upgrades to remain on top.

I’ve had clients pay $100k for a sewer line though (commercial properties, complicated lines running under parking lots, sidewalks, landscaping and the bid includes replacing the landscaping too, etc. or requiring a permit from the city to close off the road for the day with traffic control, etc.).

I have heard Texas and most areas would be closer to $100 when its all said and done.You can find good contractors through realtors, HBA in your area, REI Facebook groups and meetups etc.Make sure to check references of past and current clients, visit some jobs in process as you can tell a lot about a contractor by how the job site is kept up and organized.

We used to get as many as we wanted for 5- 10k per unit now, 40- 65k .IMO in 5- 8 years or so you will not recognize the Euclid Corridor from Little Italy ( well just east)  to the RTA, why do you think there is zero inventory? 

One of my younger clients is a 21-year-old college student.

I have some clients in MO that have bought tax liens and the QT process is usually 90 days.

We don't tolerate clients that want to micromanage us.
