Any insight into Ohio Rental market / turnkey investments

[Kate Stephens]

Hi,

I'm new to biggerpockets so this is my first post!  I'm very inspired by all of the success stories and advice on here. I have a few rental properties in California and am looking at changing direction and investing in Ohio for better cash flow. I'd love any feedback on Ohio as an investment market (I have no ties there just seemed to make sense based on the returns but can look anywhere really). I'll need a trusted turnkey partner due to the distance, a busy job and being a Mom. Would love any recommendations or feedback on things to look out for. Thank you!

If you are looking in Ohio for only cash flow and want more opportunities, I'd check out Toledo (my hometown) or cleveland as well as Columbus. there is a group by the name of Ohio Cash Flow Properties that does turnkey rentals out of Toledo. If you are considering Columbus, I can give you a few areas for almost all cash flow. But there will be a lot more opportunities and less competition outside of central OH.
