Quote from @Patrick Drury: @Juan LizarazoBoth the Columbus and Cleveland markets are great for investing in from out of state if looking for cashflow since they are landlord-friendly, and have a low barrier of entry and cash flow.Avoid Cleveland Ohio... not landlord friendly... very anti-business 

Definitely agree mate,I'm the biggest anti-guru there is and I also believe in spending money on a rehab rather than a $50,000 seminar.Even if you loose the $50,000 on the deal, the experience gained will benefit you forever.I cherish my losses more than my gains as they teach me how to be better and not repeat the same mistakes on a $500,000 deal for example lolThanks

In fact, I thought it was a violation of anti-trust to specify a minimum commission.

The Illinois side intimidates the snot out of me with what I hear of their anti landlord laws.  

My view is the state politicians are slightly anti STR, but so far not enough to pass anything extremely anti STR.  

They are pretty anti landlord there.

Then you have to be concerned about lease duration in the event of anti STR regulation.  

In total, combing 2 private meetings/interviews, we spent approx 5 hours with Mayor Scott Jablow, Assistant Mayor Holli Ploog, Housing Manager Shannon Boone, and their in-house council.My take-away:The Sedona government is receiving a lot of pressure from people that are anti-STR.

I’m crossing my fingers that the anti-barking device will sort it out, but it’s great to know I’ve got some backup options from you all if that doesn’t pan out.Thanks again! 

Some anti money laundering law.I'm not familiar with other cities in Africa other than Cape Town which is beautiful and first world.
