It has seen significant growth, especially with tech giants like Intel, Meta, Amazon, and Google setting up operations, driving up property prices and job opportunities.

It’s heavy manufacturing, finance industry, health care, Tech Giant presence, 3 pro sports teams (and hopefully an MLB team), zero state income tax, and nearly 1100 companies have located to nashville in the last decade.

That's a giant red flag for that grocer potentially declining to renew their lease, vegan gluten free customers don't want to walk through a cloud of cigarette smoke to get to their ethically sourced non-GMO organic avocado, and obviously the "no smoking within 50 feet" sign is going to be ignored by the customers of that neighboring business, who are all a bunch of smokers.

I focus on Columbus, Ohio, which has seen significant growth, especially with tech giants like Intel, Meta, Amazon, and Google setting up operations, driving up property prices and job opportunities. 

Apt 2 rented at 1300/mth (2 bd)I would call the rentals B-/C because they are in a giant metal shop and low grade materials.So gross income of 76K annually.Expenses:Insurance is currently $14652 annually but that seems way too low when SFH go for that muchTaxes are currently 2800/yr, but I expect those to nearly double if I pay his asking price (so let's say 5k/year.

This is generally due to the fact that this is how the American housing giants – Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac – government-sponsored agencies, separate their loan programs.Note that this is another example of where real estate “lingo” doesn’t always match with the standard English Language!

I have a giant sheet with hundreds of lines of info: OpEx, transaction costs, holding costs, contingencies, rent forecasts, etc.

As someone looking into real estate investing (currently trying to find an affordable multifamily to house hack), it seems like its going to be difficult finding funding as most properties that aren't in complete disrepair are close to 200k, and dealing with the properties that do even fall below 110k seem like giant investments in terms of how much work, structural and big ticket fixes, where losing money on a deal seems much more possible than making money. 

Ever think on that, why isn't this giant commercial building with this huge open football field of a roof simply throwing up solar?

I've had such bad experiences in the past with dogs in a different fully furnished short term rental where we originally allowed dogs-- swimming in a decorative pond and disconnecting the filter, killing the koi, chewing up a couch and other soft furnishings, scratching a newly installed hardwood door and ruining the finish, digging giant holes in the yard and landscaping.... thousands of dollars of damage, really, in a very short time, which is why I have a strict no pets policy, and am particularly nervous about dogs on the property.
