If you want good cash flow but amazing appreciation potential and rentals you want to hold for the rest of your life, I would definitely consider Columbus!

My wife has 2 rental units and I have one rental unit, each rental unit is in their own LLC.

How much income you'd want from the rentals and when you want that income to happen by. 

I provide short term rental furnishing and renovation finish list that includes paint colors, light fixtures, cabinets etc.

Below is some copy & paste info about our methodology:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Unless you revise your plan and ensure that your personal use is under 10% of the rental use.

I have been dabbling in real estate investing and we have a vacation rental property in Custer SD.

I previously owned a long-term rental that I bought from a parent and rented to family for over three years (lesson learned!).

Am wanting to purchase another rental property but downhave the funds other than the equity in the current rental.

My overall goal is to generate monthly cash flow, and my current property might be a better rental option since it has equity.I’m also considering starting a business and purchasing the next property in the business’s name.
