Quote from @Ryan Ramola: Hey everyone,I’m based in Oxford, MS and currently exploring my first out-of-state rental investment, with Columbus, OH catching my attention as a potential hot spot.

You might be out of $12,000 ion the spot.

As a local PM I have a facilities manager that does spot checks but cleaners are typically first and last ones in. 

I would look into spot hero and/or other parking apps to gauge what market rates look like for parking in that neighborhood then adjust accordingly for the quality of parking you're able to offer.

You’re in a strong spot for real estate—Memphis is known for solid rental demand, especially in blue-collar neighborhoods where investors can still find decent cash flow and value-add opportunities.

Pretty sure it could be an awesome spot to run a facility!

Columbus, Ohio is one of those spots—it's been getting a ton of attention lately because the macroeconomics are really strong here.

The biggest parameter is, I would not have more than 1-2 parking spots available for this new unit so renting to a small business that has constant customer visits would not be ideal.

That said, I’ve had better luck and heard good things from other investors in spots like West Park (Kamm’s Corners), parts of Old Brooklyn, and even Jefferson if you’re looking for C/C+ areas with solid long-term tenants and not too much turnover.

Hey Carlos, thanks for sharing these tips—your system is super organized and spot on!
