New Investor in Columbus Ohio
Hello everyone. My name is Andy Milby and I'm new to real estate investing. I've been listening to the BP Podcast for almost a year now and have been working on getting myself setup to invest. I am now starting to look for investments in Columbus and looking at multi-family and value add buy and hold investing.
I currently work as an IT Analyst and have a long term goal to build enough cash flow from real estate to get out of corporate life and focus on real estate. I currently have a few contacts locally in real estate however they focus mostly on residential purchases/loans and not on the investment side. I'm looking to expand my network with local real estate investing connections and continue to learn about real estate investing.
Thanks in advance and I look forward to being involved in the conversation on BP!

BP is a great tool for investing, the Columbus Market is a great market to be in. I’ve been helping clients from all over the country acquire and manage rentals here in Columbus. It’s important to work with someone who knows the city well and is versed in what areas work vs. the ones that don’t. Feel free to PM if you have any specific questions!
