The only thing I'd say is to make sure if you decide to go the STR route that whatever property you decide on could also double as a long-term rental profitably in case either a) you decide you're tired of dealing with the STR work (or managing someone else doing it) or b) your city restricts STR all of a sudden.

Hi Sandy, I have a full time job and I am interested in a single or double family unit.

Not only was he over on our contracted timeline (which include penalties) but he left me with a TON or extra work, double payments and extra expenses that I was not aware of.I want to recoup my extra expenses, lost rent and penalties and am not sure what steps are next to reporting this guy.Where are the best places to report him, other than his bonds, State Licences Board, BBB, so he doesn't do this again to anyone else...Does anyone have a contract/real estate attorney recommendation?

And a double in Southern Orchards, mellow yellow, double in NE Columbus and a sfh flip in NE Columbus.

While the upstairs on this one was rented throughout the rehab, it proved to be a double edged sword.

Replaced all the flooring, Doubled the size of the master bathroom and relocated the master closet.

I am looking to purchase a newly remodeled 2bed 2bath double wide with high end finishes.

Should I be weary of this, or just go for the cashflow opportunity and factor in doubled vacancy rate on the OPEX? 

If you don’t have experience, make sure you double check all your numbers.
