IMO, the root cause is that lay people think they can draft a "simple" right of first refusal.

This is not a professional letter or nothing this is just what I see with my eyes and my root attach to this island.

These new companies also provide Ohio State graduates an extra incentive to put down roots in Columbus once they hit the job market.

You or anyone else for that matter can get more branches in the air than roots in the ground.Best regards and wish you well:)Thanks so much for your contribution to this post and taking the time to even read through it all and catch up!

Hasty generalization is the root cause of bigotry, prejudice and discrimination.

But if you have good roots in Cincinnati, I would explore.I am trying multiple options, maybe look at a decent property of 4/6 units and see how it plays out.

IE landlord wants the house back  LOL  or your wife is OK with moving and not having deep roots.. and or your OK with the schools.. but then you get booted and cant find a home in the right school district.. these are the downsides. 

I think that's important - having deep roots in the market you're investing in - or making sure the syndicator does.

Focus on your roots, and you will bear fruit. $8k is ok but not great.

Or, they know the job they are taking is somewhat short term so they don't want to put down roots.
