Hello BP,

I'm looking good home inspector in Columbus. Somebody that understands investor needs, fast and responsive.

I'm a remote multi-family investor. Currently, I have two properties in St Louis, MO. I'm looking for another city for my next investment, currently researching Columbus. I understand that it has:
- strong, diverse economy
- midwest cap rates
- big university

Tonight I'm looking at the MF properties currently listed on LoopNet. How would you classify these neighborhoods in terms of occupancy rates, growth, etc?
Hilltop
University District
German Village
Near East Columbus

Any other areas I should get to know?

Thanks!

Hello BP! 

We have been growing our portfolio in Columbus, OH for the past 2 years and are up to 14 units! Our goal is to continue to add units (a lot of units) and we want to start getting systems in place that we can grow into. After my brother read The E Myth we decided we should really focus on this during the coming month. We'd be curious to hear peoples experiences and strategies for a few specific experiences and whatever else we might not be considering! 

1) What was your first hire to help with your properties? What tasks were they responsible for? And why?

2) What was the payment structure and amount of time worked per week? And why?

3) Would you go the same route or do you think you could change something to make the whole process smoother?

Thanks for your responses they will all be read and discussed! I look forward to hearing from everyone!

Hello all! I'm Kirk and I'm a college student in the Dallas area. Real estate investing is something that I've watched multiple people around me grow successful from and I've always had such a great interest in it.

After joining the BP community seeking out all the information I can, I know this is something that I want to do. As a graduating senior in college, I'm not sure of where to start my investing journey as I am originally from the Columbus, Oh area.

If anyone in Dallas is looking for somebody to mentor, work with, or simply meet for coffee, I'm your guy! Just thought I'd throw that out there!

Thanks for welcoming me into the community!

Hello I am new to the forum and somewhat new to investing (I bought one house rented it and sold to my tenants 3 years ago) I have been working as an accounting since graduating college in 2008. I am pregnant with my 3rd child and recently found out I will be laid off from my job the month I have my baby. However, losing my job has made me really re evaluate things and I really want to get back into investing and be free from a 9-5. I have $40,000 to invest but not really sure of the best strategy  (Columbus, Ohio) .So my question is....if you were in my situation what would you do if you had 40k to invesst? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, is there anyone from Columbus OH. I want to buy an investment property out there utilizing the BRRRR strategy or even just flat out buying it and finding a PM to manage it. What's does the rent go for in Columbus anyone?

Hey folks,

I'm a frequent lurker and infrequent poster. I'm on the hunt for a real estate agent for my parents rental home in Columbus, OH. It's a smaller SFR in Clintonville. I helped them remodel and then lived in it for several years during college. It's been a rental for the past 10 years or so. They need a savvy agent experienced in the local market that can help them prep, stage, and get it on the market fast. Any recommendations?
