I think for us, since we are in our mid 20s and not planning on having children anytime soon, we are looking more for affordability, future potential of of a neighborhood and appreciation. 

You will more than likely lease to a family with children so keep that in mind. 

I am a stay at home mom with 3 children under 6.

I found in my one property that had tile the tenants beat on it and had multiple poorly behaved children and pets and there was no odor.

My son just started his first year at Ohio State, my two other wonderful children will go to college soon. 

MyProperty has three tenants one adult two children.

For the last 7 years, I have been involved in purchasing, rehabbing and managing 3 hotels in St Augustine Florida I live is St Augustine with my wife and 4 children.

This is largely due to the substantial investments made by major companies such as Intel, Honda, Nationwide Children's Hospital, and Wexner Medical Center, which have expanded their operations and created numerous job opportunities in the region. 

That means that I outlive it and I'm around to enjoy the fruits of my life's work and I get to watch my kids and grand children become adults.

Be careful with this offer, especially if the seller has any children or beneficiaries.
