Can you point me to some authoritative source for what that rate is at a given time?

My biggest concern now is finding buyers and finding a good way to price real estate in my area.

Biggest thing is listen to the advice you get, so many want to argue that this "there first" deal is good.

Since there are only two, with that approach you drop the biggest income and see if the other qualifies alone.

One of the sources I used in evaluation(s) is the latest SEC annual report filing.

Rentals in OH or almost anywhere in the US that really don't have any heat source have another name: slums.I suspect the question is asking for rentals where the heat is included with the rent.

The scenario I'm looking at is a buy-and-hold strategy (100% cash) that would generate a moderate amount of income (with no other sources of income).

Sam, just qualify people on the consistant basis and same qualifications regardless of thier source of money as being reliable.

Interestingly enough, Lawyers and CPA's are great sources of leads as well..

Good call on saving thousands...I believe there are too many other sources of information out there!
