I understand that doing bi-weekly simply means you are doing 13 mortgage payments a year as opposed to 12. So you get one payment each year that goes straight to principal. I've read other threads on the topic and it ...

I'm looking to connect with investors in this market to share ideas. 

@Kaustubh Vongole, nice job on narrowing down your potential markets!

Would need to know more about the project but fairly confident in that market myself.

Is the micro market (neighborhood) appreciating, flat, or declining, and what is it expected to do over the next 5 years?  

Mexico is by far the main market for the whole area and  one of the main agents in Puerto Vallarta, one of the main markets, recently told me that every American he knows who is a pro rehabber in the US who's done a rehab there has hated it and said they'd never do it again.Hope this helps.

I will call you to discuss Cincinnati's market and some areas in which I am interested in investing.

There are obviously a lot more factors that go into it - real estate is always going to be a mix of the tangible property/market itself with a mix with the investor/operator including experience, risk appetite, financial situation etc.I would say however if you are just getting started in real estate - LTRs are probably (in a vacuum) the better bet as STRs are certainly more sophisticated and challenging from an investor perspective

Low comps, low chance to resell (cold/cool market), overblown ARV?

Hey @Richard Pennington, Raleigh is a huge market for fix & flip and wholesaling.
