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).

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. 

First one was most expensive, needed new air compressor, new stain, and all new furniture, ~$15k (1BR + loft).  

It will air October 10th. 

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

Make sure that this won't put your future buyer in hot water with the VA or his lender. 

After reaching out to the wholesaler if they basically just threw their hands up in the air inside it's not our problem.

One consideration is that the market we are looking at is pretty hot so properties fly off if the offers are not all cash.

Bookings and all that is simple- AIR,VRBO, we do a direct site we built but you can get by without.

Several reasons: market rates, cost of operations, risks of the tenant in particular, rental history, turnover potential, loss of rent during turnover period, "hot" or "cold" market, etc.
