For example, I invest in Indianapolis and there's not many 3+ bedrooms with 2+ bathroom MTRs so if I was looking to cohost I would go after a larger property to target the undersupplied market. 

Some renters become home inspectors and will tear your place apart regarding anything (maybe for a discount).  

Develop relationships with contractors you’ll need; attorney, appraisers, loan officiers, brokers, inspectors, etc. 5.

I'll make the numbers work" (Indianapolis) with no line item bids.

This is our second rental in Indianapolis that we closed on a couple of months ago, but it has been difficult finding tenants.

•Can I bring a home inspector, or is that generally not allowed?

I also invest in the Indianapolis metro area and had similar problems to what you mentioned in Ohio.

@Ben ClingerHi Ben, I just noticed your post.Toledo just clarified their inspection criteria for section 8 houses and decided they wanted their cake and to eat it too...we don't have to have an interior inspection (since LMHA inspects that during their inspection), but we DO have to pay for a Lead Inspector contractor to visually inspect the exterior of the house and of course we DO have to pay the $45 fee (which is of course what this is all about).LMHA of course inspects the outside of houses along with the inside so the whole lead inspection is redundant.

I have 2 rentals in Indianapolis but thought maybe I should look in AL instead but just starting my research.

Only do turnkey if you have your OWN well qualified inspector who can point out any hacks or deferred maintenance issues.Many turnkey providors are notorious for this.
