I plan on doing most, if not all, of the rehab myself so that's why I want to find a flip that's close to me, minimize travel time.

I have decided to do short term rentals of my home in baltimore to travel nurses and other traveling professionals.

I know getting someone to travel outside of the city can be tough.

Bed bugs travel in furniture and clothes. 

I use to live in Sac and travel back and forth to Bay Area quite a bit/have been able to connect/meet with folks like you who'd like to invest in Cincy.

It's about 40-50 min to travel between the two towns.

I’m finally moving forward with purchasing a small duplex with a fair amount of cash reserves and excessive credit card lines thanks to travel hacking (I don’t intend to use them, but it’s nice to have them there).

Keys was also very seasonal while south Florida is a hub for events, conferences, concerts besides the typical beach/partying which means there's always an influx of travelers whether for corporate/family or spontaneous getaway.If you find something in the Keys you will make money regardless - I just found this area more profitable.

In the end though, I think you are simply going to get Corporate bookings by being an Airbnb as most business travelers I know use Airbnb anyway to book when hotels are not available. 

When I see photos of the prospective tenant traveling all over on their Instagram and they meet all of my other criteria, you have hit the tenant jackpot.
