Even after this, I've had late payments, but never had a tenant reach out to me proactively before its due to let me know.If a tenant doesn't pay rent but instead uses that money for a new toy, vacuum cleaner, car payment, vacation, food, medical needs, or otherwise, I don't care. 

MTRs do well here with massive medical employers like Nationwide Children's as well as OSU and their various facilities, the largest being the Wexner Medical Center.

This is due in large part to major corporations like Intel, Honda, Nationwide Children's Hospital, and Wexner Medical Center investing heavily in the region and creating numerous job opportunities. 

If you want to look into this option let me know, I currently have numerous clients doing MTR in that area with great success because of Swedish medical and Porter right around the corner.

I've been in the real estate game since 2015 and spent 11 years as a combat medic in the National Guard.I'm a seasoned small-time investor, eager to expand my portfolio.

They discharged some medical debt and a few other things and that was it. 

Will you pay for the tenant's medical expenses?

It seems to be a healthy, growing market in the medical field, plus his father, a former construction manager, would take care of property management (we live in New York) and help vet the properties we'd be considering, which could help reduce costs.I did some initial searching online and was a bit disappointed at the prices--many well above the rough 100k mark I'm targeting, and most between 150-250k--because the cash flow opportunity doesn't seem to be as promising as I hoped.

We would be tenant-owned (medical practice) but essentially are buying 50% from the current owner who owns it outright.
