Ready To Execute First Rental Property
Hi Everyone,
I posted about two months ago asking for advice on areas to invest in as my husband and I have been able to save up and are ready to purchase our first rental. After weeks of research, I think we've finally agreed that we'd like to start in Ohio. We set up a 90 day goal. So I am hoping to connect with some people who can give us advice, maybe build a team with experienced realtors, lenders, property managers, contractors. Anything would be appreciated!!
Thank you,
Karen

@Karen Mizrahi
I recommend areas like Hilltop, Linden, Eastmoor/ Whitehall, and Franklinton. These are areas where you can cash flow in Columbus because the rent-to-price ratio is favorable. Out of these areas, Franklinton and Linden are seeing some of the most developments. With things like the ONE Linden plan in Linden, which is a 50M plan to improve the neighborhood. Of that 50M, 25M was allocated for the construction of a new recreational faculty that has since been completed. Franklinton has been seeing lots of developments like the completion of Gravity Phase 1 and with phases 2 and 3 on the way. As well as coffee shops like Bottoms Up Coffee are moving in and small microbreweries like brew dog and land grant.
