New investor in the united states
Hello, I am a new investor primary looking at the Columbus Ohio market. I am a foreign national so will be investing from a distance. I would like to buy a duplex and try an airbnb and if that did not work would like to long term rent the property. If anyone can offer any advise I would love to hear from you.
Thank-you

Welcome!
I've been investing in Columbus for the past 5 years. It's a great market for short, mid, and long term rentals due to its strong economy and growing population.
