I really see Columbus Ohio as an extremely safe bet for the next 10-20 years.

That is a lot of work if I am the only one you are sending it to, but I bet your email list would grow quickly if you provided that level of service.      

I bet they will give you the information you want in return for removing the review.

Hi @Jessica Franco,I am quickly approaching the purchase of my first rental apartment in Johannesburg - once I've signed the OTP, I will update you on my progress here and let you know what I've found and give you a brief deal breakdown that will hopefully assist you in one way or another :) If I get caught up in it all and forget, feel free to drop me a reminder or follow up in my inbox (or here).Cheers!

Your best bet would be to get with an agent who knows what areas are already zoned properly.

Utalizing a HELOC (Line of Credit) may be your best bet for your next property.

If you were to conduct a market analysis of similar properties purcahsed with the intent to flip, I bet most were acquired with construction financing.  

Investments are not sure bets.

Sure if you take a bet on rates... 

If you are considering a refinance anyways, the appreciation play may be your best bet for a home you want to live in.If you are looking for more of an investment property, I would focus on Medium-Term-Rentals or Rent by the Room in a SFH (single family home).
