Soon, there will be a ton of posts below from agents in Columbus and Cleveland to "help" you, but you already know where you want to be.I wouldn't be thinking STR for Ohio unless you are doing woodsy, which can work, but the table stakes are high on those (swimming holes, saunas, game rooms, hot tubs).

So, you need Zillow to tell you it's hot in TX and FL gets hurricanes?

Among U.S. cities, counties or metro areas for which regular data is available, Maricopa County holds one of the highest eviction rates, at 16 filings per 100 renter households during the past year, according to Eviction Lab, a research group at Princeton University that tracks evictions in 35 U.S. cities and 10 states.

I'm hoping to see more of this and praying it gets passed bc we have 2 strs in Hot Springs that have been slapped w/rediculous annual fees and investment hindering regulation.

Of course a seller is free to require whatever conditions he desires… but the reality is that in anything but the rare ultra hot seller’s market requiring “stiffer” qualifications to make an offer will result in a lower price. 

4) How many total people in your household?

Despite current unemployment rates maintaining below 5%, the recent rise from 3.8% to 4.2%(recently revised to 4.1%) is significant, especially when considering wage growth adjusted for inflation.Over the last few years, the median household income has dropped by 7.2% when adjusted for inflation (and this isn't even considering volatile food and energy prices), a troubling trend given that inflation has outstripped income growth.

In a hot market I was one of over 20 bids.
