Most areas like whitehall or other areas of columbus haven't appreciated at all and sell for the same price they did in 1990s. depends on the area. but whitehall might be a bit more, just depends where it is exactly. rent seems correct. property management seems correct. did you account for turnover?

Hi Bosko, it, of course, depends on the seller's situation.

Another option would be to get a low money down payment loan, but then they would have to pay PMI, unless if it could be avoided somehow.Applicant 2 aloneThis applicant would definitely not qualify for good interest rates but they could comfortably put a large percentage down, e.g. 30% ,50% ,70% depending on what they are comfortable with.Applying JointlyIf both applicants apply together would they qualify for interest rates as good and what applicant 1 could get on their own?

Depends on the type of loan and the lender..  

@Tim McLaughlin Maybe, I guess it depends on what it is.

@Christopher Moore I would say it all depends on where at what you are looking to invest at and in.

@Joseph Luce I think it depends on many factors, but as a father myself when I was looking for my home to purchase to live in it was the top of my list.

@Michael Gravallese, so it is really dependent on the jurisdictions overlay maps?

It depends on our own dispositions.While hunting for deals online,i stumbled upon a great opportunity.

@Sean Wilt  The answer to your question, it is high dependent on the city rules regarding STR's.
