Also wonder how appreciation plays out in that area as well.

I do think brand can play a very important role in the long term of something like this.

It's playing with plutonium.

Columbus is going to be more of an appreciation play and cash flow margins will be tighter in the beginning. 

It’s stable cashflow and long term appreciation and tons of accelerated bonus depreciation on taxes. like most anything in real estate it’s a long term play. 

I am also curious about when/how an attorney/legal involvement comes into play with this.

This plays into the affordability issues for tenants by allowing them to live in nicer neighborhoods for less money, yet I get monthly revenue comparable to short-term rentals.I have also shifted my focus to buying better.

That can play a big part when issuing terms. 

This isn't analyzing deals, this is just playing a video game.
