Im in NJ, but not sure it's the right market for me due to very high taxes and cost of houses. 

Seems like short term would likely generate more revenue but not really sure about profit when you consider vacancy and property management fees of ~30% (I would consider remote management but I would think cleaning fees would still be ~$400/mo. which is high).

The majority of my properties are in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge, TN and it's fantastic for high occupancy and cash flow.  

I have a lot of other examples also and a high percentage of them end up calling me after the transaction asking about taking legal action (usually too late, the deal is closed, sad fact is they just screwed up). 

The problem I find is I don't like putting in that much time doing research and field inspections (300-400 properties per week are auctioned) for such low odds that the property will sell at a price I need it to.....either the plaintiff will have a really high max bid set (like the full judgement amount) or another 3rd party bidder will bid it up more than it's worth.  

This has led to an increase in property prices and a growing population seeking employment opportunities.In addition to Columbus, other cities worth considering in the Midwest include Cleveland and Dayton.

What I've seen work best is having VA caller prospect target lists of motivated sellers (high equity, older properties, driving for dollars, etc).

Really high-level stuff!

But, the turnover in employees was high.

If we turn the tables and say it could be a 95% failure ratio. ( doubt it's ever that high but just for conversation sake) In general for the whole country if we count everyone.
