Rooming House Columbus Ohio

For those familiar with Columbus Ohio. I’m exploring renting by the room. I believe the city requires a rooming house license but I can’t find any info online on how to obtain the license. Any info would be useful. If you do rent by room in Columbus is there a PM firm you’d recommend and how rigorous are the annul city inspections?

Thanks!

hello everyone.. I'm searching for my first house hack and will be doing so by renting out the rooms in a primary residence. Can any suggest any good tips/ resources / people that I can pick their brains ? I've been living in columbus a little over a year and am ready to jump in as my current lease expires this October. Some questions I have are 

- does renting by the room work best downtown ? 

- have any tips on a good agent ?

- any great info on how much to charge for rent?

- how have you seen covid affect the willingness of others want to house hack ?

thanks in advance for all/ any information you can provide!
