Again, I am sorry that your expecations were not met as I will always try to be honest, straightforward and respectful to all of our guests".It is a shame that one reviewer can hold so much sway, but sometimes the host's response (if done well) to a negative review can actually draw me to a property, rather than dissuade me from booking.

I do have monthly mortgages to be paid and not having rental income to offset my negative cash flow has been a learning experience and really trying to think of what options I have to have better success at this.

I will concur with negative comments above.

A degree is a negative.  

That means there is not really an effect on the debt to income ratio neither positive (income) or negative (loss) but rather simply making that payment  non issue. 

The PM company is starting to kick a little better lately but we had a rough 2024.Always remember that every positive and negative experience when taken well is an opportunity to grow as a person and to learn something valuable. 

I don't know where to invest, really drawn to Columbus for many reasons (some cash flow and stable appreciation)--what's been some people's positive and negative experiences in Columbus? 

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

@Isaac Hanai make sure you FULLY understand the negatives of S8 programs, not just the mirage of consistent government rent payments.

Yeah, I figured he must delete the negative ones.
