Young Investors seeking advice on investing in the Columbus Ohio market

[Nikash Rajeshbabu]

Hey all, 

Hope everyone is doing well! My business partner and I are 3rd-year college students (I'm studying electrical and computer engineering at Rutgers and he's studying data analytics at UIUC) and are looking to buy our first rental property (our buy box includes SFH and multi-family) out of-state this year. We have taken a lot of interest in the Columbus Ohio market and have been trying to research the area. We would appreciate any help from investors and locals in the area to give us some guidance and advice regarding the area! Please feel free to reach out to me directly as well, I am more than eager to hop on calls with investors to get a feel for the area. Thanks so much guys!

Building your team is important out of state. You'll want to establish boots on the ground (usually through a good property manager) to be successful.
