@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.

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 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 ...

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

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

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

I was in touch with a lot of agents I even have a folder with all the pics and contacts but I have not done much with it, I have been very busy trying to fix a rental property and also been quite involved with this crashing market since January ( my stocks took such a hit , I have lost all motivation).

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

At what point can I begin to market the property and find a new tenant?
