Best Cash Flow Neighborhoods in Columbus, OH?

Best Cash Flow Neighborhoods in Columbus, OH?

Member since 2020 · 3 posts · 6 votes

I’m a first time real estate investor looking to purchase 2-4 unit multi-family properties in C+ to B+ areas that require little to no repairs. I would like to generate a 12%+ cash on cash return. Based on what I’ve read in the Columbus forums, Southern Orchards and Franklinton seem like great places to look but would love to hear other’s opinions. Any perspectives you can provide are much appreciated.

 That should be doable.

    You’d invest in a C area for only 12 coc?

    @Anthony Hayes If you invest in Whitehall, hilltop, or south linden you will see the best cashflow for your buck, but don't expect a lot of appreciation. Southern Orchards, Franklinton, and the rest of the up and coming areas are very competitive and often get bid up, while rental rates in those areas are great, finding a good deal can pose itself difficult.

    Both Southern Orchards and Franklinton are great markets. I would also consider North Linden.
