Quote from @Christina Hall: Sorry I only read a fraction of what you just posted … bc damn … lots of unnecessary commentary But I do understand Search volume managing hundreds of thousands of dollars per year in google ad spend and seo for major organizations If the volume isn’t high enough than you aren’t going to get meaningful traffic to drive conversionsIf there are 20 people searching per month and 10 convert and they are qualified and that’s all you need then great But the fact that you are screenshotting hundreds of form submissions is suspect and misleading to those who don’t understand hence the reason why I’d love too see your GA Good luck out there Humor me for a second.You come to the forums asking for help on lead generation because obviously, you are not very good at it, hence asking for help.

You may also want to check the Columbus OH market - great macroeconomics with lots of job and population growth along with major companies developing here that drive strong rental demand. 

I'm an investor here in Columbus OH myself and have seen the city's solid and steady growth with strong economic fundamentals driving the market like major companies moving here (Meta, Intel, Google, Amazon, etc), job growth, and population growth.

For example, here in Columbus we've got Intel building their mega-fab which is already driving up property values and rents in certain submarkets.

The cost of PM here is between 20 - 30 % and frankly, while they can drive occupancy, they often have lower rates and less attention to detail (I worked with one when I transitioned a new property that was previously PM managed).
