Worried about investing in older properties in Columbus? In this video, I break down why an older house doesn't automatically mean a bad investment - and how to turn it into a profitable opportunity!

Learn the crucial differences between two types of older properties:

✓Properties with 30+ years of deferred maintenance

✓Well-maintained older homes with consistent updates

Discover what smart investors look for when evaluating older properties:

✓ Electrical systems (knob and tube vs updated)

✓ Plumbing conditions (cast iron vs modern)

✓ Roof integrity

✓ Foundation status

✓ Major mechanical systems

✓ Renovation budget considerations

As a Columbus real estate investor, I'll show you exactly how to evaluate older properties and protect your investment through:

✅Working with an experienced investor agent

✅Utilizing inspection contingencies

✅Getting proper contractor estimates

✅Understanding renovation budgets
