I am an agent in Ohio and work extensively with investors. I have heard of this company, but if I recall was more of a seminar type program, that offers free teaser weekends or seminars, and then wants you to spend big bucks to learn more (and most claim it got them no where. Message me if you want to learn more about Ohio options. I am in greater Columbus, and our market it on fire but still very affordable. Our economy and jobs are exploding!  Good luck!

 Well said Jay!

 Thats disappointing to read Nick  While I do think there can be an honest way to wholesale or do assignments, there are too many "wanabees" being dishonest and unethical to Sellers. This hurts the industry in general.  Wonder how many report their actual profit and income to Uncle Sam like I have to do? Rob, I'd be curious which title company you're referring to  I have one legitimate client I could refer their way!

You better be prepared in the Columbus Ohio market to do a double closing and take title first. Columbus is very strict, and most all title companies are very loyal to their Realtor partners vs am occasional wholesaler. The Ohio Division of Real Estate watches all sides of the real estate transactions, including title companies.  Their license and business are not worth it. Most also have attornies on staff and protect them from liabolity or the Division breathing down their neck. As an agent here, I've seen the crackdown here locally!

I'm an agent and small scale investor in the Columbus area, and know central and southeastern Ohio very well. If I can be of any assistance for advice, pm me!  Good luck. And youre right, multi-family around Jackson has to very scarce!

 welcome to BP and Central Ohio!  I am here too, as a full time Realtor and (so far) small scale investor. This is and fantastic area for investing in real estate!  Let me know how I can help. I'll send you pm with my contact info if you'd like to brainstorm or discuss the best areas in terms of cost vs returns, rental demand, grade of the area, etc.  Best wishes for a great start to 2016!

In my experience they have been high cost.  They also oversee several home owner associations, and from my client's experiences, it sounds like communication has not been the greatest.  I would do extensive homework on this to get what you are paying for!

Welcome to BP!  This is an an excel lent site to learn, share, ask questions, and network!  I'm an agent in Columbus and small scale investor at thus point. In my opinion, buy/hold is the way to go in our area!  Deals for flips are getting harder and harder to find that make sense. The rental market in all price points is in high demand here, while buying property to hold that needs minimal work is still easy to find! Best of luck, let me know if I can guide or help in any way!

Buy and hold as rentals is a fantastic money maker both long also short term in and around Columbus!
