They started with building a new Hockey arena right at the heart of the city that brings with it lots of fun night life.

I don't have the heart to kick them out.

I'm originally from Cleveland so Ohio holds a soft spot in my heart but I also know of a very large turnkey operation that I respect that loves Indianapolis and has had a lot of success there.For all intensive purposes, they both look like great options and it might actually be a good idea to invest in both to diversify my portfolio.

This will definitely tug on the judges heart strings now.

I have been known to forgive rent when its to cold and the heat bill to high.and I would NEVER raise rent as long as the tenants paid on time and did not call me with a bunch of honey do's :).but if you can lock her into say a 3 year lease at that rate I would do that in heart beat.. she moves out its vacant a month that's 650 lost you will never get back.. you probably have to do some work to it.. etc etc..

When we were preparing the LLC I asked about the ownership and said its "51(him)/49(me)" and he said in his Russian accent "60/40" I said okay in a heart beat.

My other option is to play it safe and find another W2 job even though my heart's not really in it.What would you all recommend?

As a wholesaler, you have to build rapport (as with any business, really) and get to the heart of what they want. 

I'm practically a bleeding heart liberal and pro tenant but rent control needs an overhaul.

Screening of cash based tenants usually consists of "a heart beat and first and last months rent."
