Zainesville - Columbus Ohio

[Account Closed]

Hello, I’m beginning to start researching RE in the Zainesville Ohio market. I’m not quite sure if anyone on here is from that area? I’d love to connect with other investors from the Zainesville to Columbus market. I’m a newbie and hope to have my first SF purchased in 2019. Thanks!

@Account Closed  I'm primarily a Columbus and surrounding area investor doing mostly fix and flips.  I've never done a deal in Zanesville, but I have done one in Lancaster and another near Newark.  The biggest difference I've noticed in these smaller markets is the smaller buying pool which equates to more time on market before you close.  Now maybe that's not as big an issue if you're a buy and hold guy, but it's something to keep in mind.  

I find myself peeking out into these smaller markets from time to time.  It does seem like there's opportunities there if you take the time to learn the market.
