I’m learning real estate investing and interested in property research, rental comps, and basic deal analysis.

If there are a limited number of STR licenses available there, and you have one, and it transfers to the buyer, then you may be able to fetch a bit more as you are basically selling a business and a house together so to speak.

However, you need to understand basic fundamentals. higher returns means higher risk, effort and/or barrier to entry.

Basically their dogs cost me thousands of dollars to finally sell it and then I had to discount the property.I had another property I was trying to sell and the house next-door neighbor had a couple of dogs in a small front yard.

@Jenning YuYou opened a can of worms :)  Thumbs up for getting into these high-end technicalities and understanding the basics.

The buildings are vacant, built in the 50's, and are basically a gut and redo. 

For screening, run your own credit/background (SmartMove or RentSpree), verify employment or a corporate letter, and collect first month plus deposit up front since 30+ days is basically a tenant in Ohio.

It is basically illegal in MD.

Basically structure a deal where the seller gets 70% from my lender and I finance the 30% with the seller. 

Other wise she could buy something with in a 3 to 5 hour drive for basically the same price and not have the weather issues.
