You are all set to begin your search.I work with a lot of out-of-state investors that like investing in Columbus because it is an investor-friendly state and properties have good cash flow and stronger appreciation.

Also including the tenant friendly restrictions limiting any ability to evict still in nj

Lenders will be limited and it will require more down payment like 20% when they should attract 1st time buyers. 

Have the power set up to come on in your name on closing day.

The non-tax Depreciation Expense (assuming 80/20 improvement to land) will result in an annual $11,132 ($382,650 * 80% / 27.5) depreciation expense which will exceed the $3,000 IRS limit but will guarantee you have no current tax liability for this investment for a long time.

You also must meet the conforming loan limits and the property cannot be distressed. 

All the underlying policies have $300K liability limits, except for the STR which has $1M/$2M. 

@Anthony Theokary Directly from the Philaelphia L&I website:  A licensed Philadelphia contractor must perform the work, except for projects on an existing one-or-two-family home that don’t require an electrical or plumbing permit.The scope of work you are performing goes far beyond the limited exception which falls within the EZ permit standards.

Currently, I've been setting up an automated system to handle leads and it's just about ready to pull the trigger but I need to feed it with leads.   

I was thinking we could put a new house on the property and either STR it or set up something like a hunting lodge.
