Cleveland Ohio Vs Columbus Ohio

[Tonye Jack]

I'm a first time out of state investor living in NYC and looking to purchase property in Ohio. In speaking with realtors in either market, I've received "bias" opinions based on the areas they serve. Any investors with experience in either of these markets, share their thoughts likes/dislikes. 

Thank you
