(this has happened to me before here in Florida) Once you get more info from the agents you can hone in on which area you need to focus on. 

The Illinois tax can also be claimed as an itemized deduction (if you itemize deductions) on your Federal return.

This allows entry without a key, and allows me to change the lock as needed if I don't want someone in there.As an agent, I provide contacts to my clients who will do these things, and occasionally I will do favors for past clients who need someone to open the door or quickly supervise an appointment; of course not all agents will do this or for free.  

There is a ton of opportunity off-market.Connect with an out of state investor agent that has a team that can cold-call. 

Almost every realtor has several investors ready to invest at least $2 million in cash.If you’re planning to use hard money loans, agents won’t show properties without prior proof of funds.I’m curious, is this a general market trend in Ohio or just this particular realtor’s approach?

Local real estate agents are saying open it up still as the opening seems too small and makes the space feel cramped. 

Stand out, be unique, and offer something of value that you would love if you were a traveler (cleaning service, amenities, a theme, etc.)Happy to help you find a place if you want some help on the agent side.

The agent usually get insurance from said once they fix the roof then I can sell you insurance.
