New to Columbus Real Estate Market

[Brittney O'Connor]

Hi! 

I am new to real estate investing in Columbus, Ohio and looking to start my venture on the rehabbing side of the house. I have a strong finance background but this is my first start in the Real Estate arena. I have read many of the forums on BP (very helpful!) but am now looking for some advice from RE veterans on the Columbus market. Any help is greatly appreciated! I am really looking forward to starting my business and want to make sure my plan is solid before buying the first home. 

Thank you, 

Brittney

Hi Brittany, I'm also getting started in Columbus.  Just wanted to add my two cents.  Grandview, Italian Village, and Short North, are all great areas but will be much harder to find good flips in my opinion.  It really depends on whether you want to flip a less expensive property though or something on the cheaper side.  Old Town and King Lincoln could be good areas for cheaper flips.  Just my thoughts.  I'm sure others will chime in with some more info!  Good luck!
