In Columbus...en route to Louisville

[Kyle Schlosser]

Hello, BP! I've lurked for a short while but thought it was time to formally put the introduction out. I'm Kyle and I'm currently living in a suburb of Columbus, OH. It looks like I'll be moving to Louisville, KY (I had previously lived there for about 7 years). As a result, the Columbus, OH, Cincinnati, OH, Louisville, KY and Lexington, KY markets are where I'm looking to research and get my start into the world of real estate investing. Currently of most interest to me are the Buy & Hold and BRRRR strategies, more likely than not in multi-family, but I try to keep an open mind as well. While I have no formal mentor, I was privileged to have some very eye-opening and paradigm shifting conversations as of late. I'm exited to continue my learning here on BP as well as begin my real estate investing journey, too. I hope I can someday be of as much value to others as this site as been to me already. ~Kyle

Hey @Kyle Schlosser, 

I think Louisville is a great market and recently bought a small apartment building there myself. I would recommend staying in the market you live in at least until you are comfortable with investing. The only reason I felt comfortable buying remotely in Louisville is because I grew up there and have a father there that is a realtor who can help me with anything real estate related that I need.

Let me know if you want me to connect you with him. He knows the market like the back of his hand and has lived in Louisville for over 40 years. He also understands investing.
