Looking to start in Columbus OH area
Hi BP folks,
I'm hoping to become a new investor from Seattle looking to invest in the Columbus area. I was swayed by the broader fundamentals in the market (pop. growth, jobs, etc.) coupled with the fact that I'm priced out of investing in Seattle.
I'm hoping I've got the order of operations right here -- I figured I would start with lenders to see where I'd be in terms of budget by using the marketplace/Googling. After that, I'll connect with agents in the area to see what deals might be in the price range and to get information that I don't have as a local. Regarding strategy, I'm looking to scale quickly which likely means a BRRRR strategy, and I'd likely start with SFH buy-and-hod
Does that sound like the right steps to start? And is Columbus a reasonable market to start in?
Appreciate any advice you have out there!
