I'll admit, I might've bitten a little more than I could chew, but I got anxious and I just wanted to have my first property in the city that was up north. 

Each of those cities have their own pros and cons but I can speak to the Columbus market.

The boogeyman of evictions and landlord hostile cities/states should be a secondary concern. 

It's far more than that over the last 10 years.And the city has one of the highest rent-to-price ratios out there.How did it get overlooked?

Each housing authority (HA) provides a voucher amount determined by bedroom and some further define it by zip code or city within their covered area.

Miami has strong demand for short-term rentals, but make sure to check HOA rules and city regulations since some areas have restrictions.

We ended up having to dig up parts of the front yard to replace the main water line that connected to the city water supply to the home.

Tenants in many markets already believe they pay too much (contrary to recent studies that show rent to property values have never been lower for the large US cities).If my insurance costs are not double my current rates over the next couple years, I will be pleasantly surprised.  

Hi Kyle, I would recommend chatting with a property manager in the specific city of Ohio you're looking to buy in.

In most of Raleigh city limits specifically, the lack of room to build new construction developments has stirred the folks in zoning.
