Out of state investing in Columbus, Ohio

Member since 2019 · 41 posts · 16 votes

Hey everybody, I just wanted to reach out and see if there was anybody living locally here that was investing in Columbus, Ohio? 

I've started building my team there and have a great realtor that I found through biggerpockets who has provided me with lenders and property managers to reach out to. 

A lot of the deals he has sent me look good when I run them through the calculators as well. 

I would love to be able to connect with somebody here locally though that might already be involved in the market or interested in it as well. 

Looking forward to hearing from y'all. Thanks!

@Brendan August glad to hear that you've already built out a lot of the necessities for investing from afar. I'm local to Columbus and would be happy to connect. I'm sure others will chime in and be willing to assist as well, but feel free to PM if you have questions or anything you'd like to discuss about the area.

    @Brendan August I am also looking into OOS investing into Columbus. I have built a team as well but so far I haven’t found anything that I can pull the trigger on (a little case of paralysis) but hopefully will overcome that. Let me know if you’d like to connect. I am available to help where I can! Good luck!

    I've been in Columbus for almost 7 years now so I'm very familiar with the area but unfortunately I haven't started doing any investing in the area yet. I've started to do some searching and networking recently though, so hopefully I can be a resource within the next year or two.

    Hi @Brendan August. Also looking to invest in Columbus. Also from out of state. Yet in the "Building a team" phase. Glad to hear other OOS are investing there too. Makes it feel more confident about my own analysis. Good luck

    @Brendan August that is great! Columbus is a great place to invest for all the reasons I'm sure you already know. There is a really great group of investors here on BP as well as other places online. Check out the COIN group on facebook for a Columbus specific group.

    Thanks for all the responses, I will be sending everybody PM's here shortly to connect. Looking forward to learning from everybody and offering advice where I can. If y'all are looking to build your team you should reach out to @Remington Lyman (hope it's ok I gave you a shout out) but he has been great to work with and has been able to provide me with a lot of insight into the market and recommendations for lenders and property managers.  

    Still hoping to find somebody that is living in the DC area and investing in Columbus to meet with in person but either way I am looking forward to connecting with everybody on this post. Thanks!
