If it's uninhabitable or in need of major repairs, that's a no-go for DSCR. 

I’m actively seeking to purchase either a multi-family or duplex unit in the Columbus area  for a medium rehab project. 

So I get your hesitation to be too demanding and your desire for the problems to go away as fast as they can, however since you have NO property manager ( I don't use one either), it is incumbent that you take a more ACTIVE approach with management of your property.Let's review your situation.  1st time leak occurred, you sent a plumber over to find the problem.  

@Eric E.UBIT only comes into play in an IRA on leveraged real estate and running an active business.

Conveniently located near major routes, this property blends modern amenities with rural charm close to Etna Pond.

I live here and I haven't seen more FSBO but I'm seeing a lot more wholesaling activity.  

For example, I have a subject property that has 1682 SF on the main floor and 810 SF of finished basement (the majority of which is about 8 feet in height with the exception of some bulkheads to hide the mechanicals) and 271 of semi-finished basement that is a utility room basically (washer/dryer, freezer, hot water heater, furnace, some storage).

People voting on that are either crazy or stupid ...And that totally incorrect post on this thread STILL gets upvoted, and STILL has the most upvotes.And people wonder why I am less active on BP ... 

Cincinnati and Columbus chapters are very active here and nationally and a great resource for networking, recommended contractors/vendors and education.

Until this point, I had nothing but great experiences with Norada's referrals in other markets, so I put my trust in them here as well.As a veteran, I saved the money for these investments during my time on active duty and while working as a contractor in Afghanistan and Iraq for over five years.
