I do not charge, and the venue is happy for us to come bring them money with beers and food being purchased.Depending on your preference, do the other stuff in your list instead... have speakers, topics, etc.

People do not go there because it is the greatest food in the world the go there because they know what they are getting and they can COUNT on it day in and day out.

I have been really digging Cleveland as a city, so much cool beer and food and really friendly people.

So.... if they bought the house only a few years ago, then maybe not a big deal, but if they bought it a long time ago and it has a low assessed value, this could mean major dollars in terms of property taxes every year, which is often overlooked.Hope that's some food for thought. 

I'm hoping that by opening up my search to 200k, I can get something that would fit me- I'm 28 with a girlfriend and live in a very "hip" area of Columbus (think old school bars, trendy food, etc.).

I won some money, plus all the comps, free food, free rooms.

Is toilet paper included, food, drinks, etc.

The idea is that if the economy falls apart, people will always need food.

I know in particular they have partnered with Seamless food delivery and maybe even airbnb.

That allows you to buy property #2 even faster, and makes it much easier for the fourplex to cashflow if you were to leave the state in several years.Just some food for thought... there's a lot of options, be sure to explore them all :-)
