I would not be worried about that, as long as they specifically allow STRs, and the process and fees have all been voted on and are in writing. 

Columbus is a great choice if you're planning on holding for the long term. 

The only person I would seller finance to is a solid long term tenenat, who has kept the property well over the years.

I had a remediation contractor come out, and he told me the levels on the report is what he'd expect from a basement in Portland, and any amount of washing / bleaching wouldn't reduce the levels much long term as more moisture would enter the space up from the slab because concrete will always give off some moisture, and he couldn't really recommend much remediation.
