Guess my question is this — where will these employees be living/trying to live?

This is a touchy subject.If you observed specific concerning behaviors during interactions, such as rudeness, aggression, or disrespect for property, these could potentially be valid reasons for rejection if documented properly.You should add one very important things to do on your checklist, past landlord references and it must be legit and find out why they aren't there any longer.

From this definition and my experience with the Multifamily Mindset and their employees, independent contractors, and sponsors they promote that is exactly what it is in my opinion.I joined the program in June of 2021.

I'm specifically looking at a property on Lake Monroe.

Wanted to get some thoughts from more seasoned small multifamily investors on a few items or any other suggestions:- Any specific pros/cons of any particular states in SE (TN, AL, GA, NC, SC) to consider?

I work more hours than I ever did as a W2 employee, but it's FUN.

Does anyone know of a dscr lender that will allow for seasoned money for a down payment and a really good property manager in Ohio specifically in Columbus, Cin, and Cleveland?  

I'll be specifically looking to start in the Cincinnati, Ohio and lean towards targeting buy and hold single family and potentially multi family as well.Any advice is appreciated and I look forward to connecting. 

Plus, very important to understand the new layout and how the dig down will effect the existing stairs, plumbing, etc.Happy to connect and talk through your specific situation because @Bruce Woodruff mentioned every project is different and know one price fits all espeically with these complex jobs.Where at in Chicago is your building?

Right now I am just looking at my options, nowhere specific too specific.
