Wesley, I'm curious to hear about your experience as I'm looking to invest in a few properties.

I thought I was on Bigger Pockets for real estate investing information.

What are some of the cities in OH that you would recommend to invest?

You can earn more by keeping your money invested in the market and letting your tenants pay off your mortgages. 

You have a very different situation now.If you don't have cash to invest in real estate, then RE is not the right place for you right now.

I'm finally ready to take the plunge into real estate investing and am super interested in the potential of short-term and mid-term rentals.I'm drawn to the idea of creating passie income .Right now, I'm trying to narrow down my market ( North carolina and Texas)and learn the ins and outs of STR property analysis.

@Chris Brown, I don't invest in GA, but not how we do it in Ohio.All deals need to go through a title company.  

Here are a few I have looked at, By the way I have no affiliation or connection to any of these other than the investment I made with Lofty.AI I mentioned earlier.
