Hi, I am. a newbie real estate investor looking to invest in Columbus, OH. I've done my research. and heard a lot of great things about this market. I'm looking for advice on out-of-state investing since I can't be physically present in Ohio due to my 9-5, and some advice on first-time investors. It'd be cool if someone can help me out, thanks!

Hey Raka, you're on the right track in choosing the Columbus market. The price to rent ratio makes for great investments. Not to mention our appreciation has been 8% higher than the US national average, because of the high demand for affordable housing.

Since you're investing OOS, it is best that have the right systems in place. Get a professional project manager, build a reliable team and get proper education of the market you're investing on.
