A phobia is an "irrational fear" and I doubt he is afraid of gay people.

I'm still in the infancy stages of my REI journey. i've been attending many REI Meet ups and seminars and have been meeting some great people!

Hello, I know this can be a very touchy subject due to fair housing laws but I just bought a property and one of the tenants wants to move to another floor and use RAFT, now I know I cannot deny them housing due to RAFT alone but they are applying because they told me they cannot come up with first last and security, I know RAFT will cover that but I am wondering what downsides are there for instance can RAFT enforce rent control or is it even more difficult to evict people who have applied.

I know most people don’t like to be bothered and will literally and/or figuratively slam the door in your face.

what I'm telling people about hilltop is the only reason it's going up is because of the average housing price in columbus being pushed and the lack of inventory. when I started I'd have bought here too. if I was going to invest here I'd look at houses built after 1947 without knob and tube wiring, etc. the old housing is the problem. we are building now in downtown adjacent. land is a buyer's market and it's much less competitive and easy to get the numbers to work. there is very little construction in 43204 and I've transitioned to new construction triplex now with entitlement and larger multifamily projects feel free to message or call anytime. personally, l like new construction in 43203, 43205, 43206, 43223, 43222 right now and obviously 43215 which you have to have at least 600k in cash to get the land to entitle and want to build at least 100 units to make it worth it. 

Don't they think people can add and subtract out the different fees?

This is where you will find people who can help you find your first deal and might have overage.

People see a nasty property.  

Heating costs go up in winter, as does electricity due to the reduced natural light and more people indoors.

Some people out there need it.
