investor friendly realtor. only work with license & bond contractors, since you’ll be out of state. whoever you get to be ur eyes on any project, make sure you trust them. definitely use that lot for more $$$ either build another rental or let the contractor rent it till you have a SOLID plan. double check laws & zoning! 

That said, it is wise to give reasonable notice of you intend not to renew so that if the tenant fails to vacate, you have a more solid action for eviction.

While in this phase I wanted to reach out to the community for any referrals of solid PM's?

I mean if you checked/changed the air filters and it/they were built up solid with dust and debris that could definitely aid in burning out a capacitor, but they do take time to burn out.

Thank you for your response Rachel. sound advice! 

There are also areas around OSU and north of downtown like Westerville that are B areas and will always be solid areas to invest in.  

I have been using them for 2 years and have not had any hiccups yet (fingers-crossed that continues).....with all that said, a good rule of thumb as a responsible owner is that you still need to pay attention to your balance sheet because human nature occurs and some things can fall through the cracks.

Flip or BRRR using hard money seems like solid options.

I do not recommend this route unless you have a solid exit and experience. 

Thank you for your response.
