Interestingly, the states that most are flocking to now like TX and FL are the most vulnerable to temperature increases, and the states most insulated from this (northern states) have been being moved away from for years.A shift up in temperatures over the next few decades could flip the current migration trend and see people in the south moving north. 

I just think that the crazy run up we've been seeing is going to come to an end and the market is going to shift to a more balanced market (probably still a seller's market for the time being though).To give you an example, homes that were selling in Nov - Dec of last year for $1.4M - $1.5M were selling for over $1.8M in January and February.

Doing it wrong can land you in a lot of expensive hot-water as you are now the evil rich landlord in the legal process & society's view.So...What are the residential rental housing laws in OH?

As a motivated & productive member of society, you've been working hard for a long time and you'll still need to keep doing something productive.

That should mitigate the stress of the negative cash flow component because you've shifted your focus from making money to adding value to your life and family's lives. 

We live in a litigious society where most injury attorneys are paid on contingency.
