Yes, I agree people are looking into the Ohio's market that sounds like a great plan. 

It was not as streamlined as now and the building department people were kind of skeptical and not helpful (surprise).

As an investor, I've allowed people to stay in my property if they built a fence on the property (single family) and/or if it is kept leashed outside of the unit and I don't get any complaints from other tenants (multi-unit). 

I would appreciate anyone who might help me work through this, but please only people who have read the book and understand Dave Meyer's concepts and teachings.

I have looked into a few ways to start off but would like to connect with people who are having success and can walk me through how to start.

Several agents have told me they are required to send it out whether they have other offers or not and most people add at least a few thousand to their offer.

I think they mainly help people determine if unpermitted additions can (likely) be made legal or not, but seems like they could be useful in your situation as well.  

Would appreciate good sound advice/wisdom and mentorship from trustworthy people in the MO area.
