Is a picture really worth 1,000 words...I hear a lot about price appreciation across Columbus, Raleigh, Nashville, and Indianapolis, but what's the real story? Here is the 12-month estimated change of property value in each market...what do you think?
Data is from esri/arc GIS...

Looks like you can throw a dart in Columbus and hit gold.
You should post a map of Cleveland

Lot's of appreciation, the image of Indy cuts out the highest growing areas on the north side.

Having lived in both Columbus and Indianapolis I can say that there are a lot of similarities between the two cities. That being said, I much prefer Columbus and I anticipate Columbus much outpacing Indianapolis in the next 10 to 20 years in appreciation.

I see a lot of appreciation in the future for Columbus. Thanks for sharing this map @Brandon Sturgill

replied about 1 month agoCan you share the uncompressed full size images? On my PC they are very small and compressed, I can't tell if I'm looking at maps or moldy soup.

Raleigh is very hot as well, Columbus has seen pockets of extreme appreciation.

Very interesting- makes sense for Raleigh NC although it seemed to me like there were more hot spots here (I live in durham NC 15 out from Raleigh).

@Remington Lyman it's too painful...I was in Cleveland today....I have love for the city, but the combination of declining population and depreciating property values are too much...

@Spencer Gray good point...do you know the zip code where Indy is growing the most...I'd like to take a look

@Jonathan Styer I would agree with that...Indianapolis is just a different city altogether. Indiana as a state has some very "interesting" nuances...I remember a few years back when they passed legislation to let businesses openly discriminate against the LGBTQ population I lost all love for that state...I think a lot of people did, but that does not seem to be factoring into peoples decisions on whether to invest there...

@Jeffrey Donis that's a good point...I guess we don't tend to think of the two individual cities because people reference them together so often...but you are right, they are 2 distinct cities.

Random question, but I figured given the Ohio-based post and demographic someone may have some insight. I'm looking for a local lender in the Columbus area that is able to do cash out refi's on investment properties inside of an LLC. Does anybody have any suggestions or have a connection that might be able to provide some insight on options available in this current market?

I believe you would have to get a commercial lender to do this. @Chris Wharton what do you recommend?

@Greg Carley is keeping the note and deed within the LLC imperative? There are some options I could present keeping in the LLC, just not as advantageous.
