• Current and Future Infrastructure (freeways, airports etc) - Is it easy to get around?

For now, I am just attempting to stick with properties that cash flow in changing market conditions.https://wolfstreet.com/2018/01/15/commercial-real-...I have been monitoring the wolfstreet blog for quite some time now and so far it seems like one of those "now its gonna crash" site that sells "negative news only".

Find a trusted asset manager to monitor your properties, and enjoy the passive income that is generated.Best of luck!

With OSU graduating 6000+ students a year, the huge grant we just received to become one of the first "smart cities" in the US and the tax incentives that attract business like Facebook and Amazon, Columbus is poised for huge growth and is building the infrastructure to support it.  

I have added video cameras onsite for security and being able to monitor the property from a distance, and then I have found a local handyman that is interested in learning the business to do the weekly maintenance, cleanouts, etc. 

Some other things to consider before going the short-term route are what your city laws are and if they are monitoring Airbnb/actively pursuing them and if you rent a condo, if there are any HOA limitations.

I could have waited for additional offers and since I was monitoring sales in the area using Trulia, I’m sure another good offer could have come, but the construction and the fear of another break-in wore me down.The title company was also very poor at communicating and managing the closing.

Do you want an armchair investment or do you want to start an active business requiring many hours of your time along with infrastructure to get said business moving along?

I have been reading about the over building in Condos in that market and am monitoring it for a crash so I can buy low.  

The purpose is to keep my files up to date and to monitor tenants on my property.
