I am wondering if anyone has any success stories (or not so successful stories) they would be willing to share about investing in central PA.

As a Canadian, wants to do air bnb short term rentals, flip long term investments and so on.

In my condo, it was turnkey except for the air conditioner and I was responsible for everything studs-in. 

There are programs that will allow you to calculate DSCR using Air DNA data so you don't need to worry about 2 years of income, what the long term market rate is, a fake lease or any of that. 

Their show hasn't come on TV in quite a while, that doesn't mean it's not airing but again I sure haven't seen it.

Have you tried looking at the unit to see if there is air blowing out somewhere?

I have no interest in either site, except I hope to use at least one of the plans on my new (old) house.The solar heat source that I am especially interested in (because it's one I can do relatively easily and think it will fit my application) is at builditsolar:Low Profile Solar Hot Air Projecthttp://www.n3fjp.com/solar/solarhotair.htmMy new (old) house has enough southern exposure I think that it will be in the sun much of the winter day.

When I flip, I prefer to stay north of Harding Way and in Central Stockton, I try to stay West of El Dorado St.

Be careful about what you buy and put in as costs, I've seen many builders buy a tool, an air hose, have the backhoe repaired and put it in the cost of that project, that is not an equity or property expense, it's a staying in business expense.Some lenders only look at hard costs, materials, labor, land, improvements with utilities, and some will allow softer costs like liability and hazard insurances, closing costs from prior transactions, engineering, plans, etc.

That is unless you invest along the lake corridor or in the central business district in commercial.
