Columbus, GA / Phenix City, AL Rental Investments

[Jake Snavely]

Hi! I just picked up my first deal in Huntsville, AL, but am starting to notice that finding deals in that market is becoming increasing lot more difficult. Someone turned me on to Columbus, Georgia. Strong military presence, strong rental market. SFRs under $100k in good areas renting quickly for $1,000-$1,100. Can anyone verify that this is true? And does anyone have experience in investing in rental properties in Columbus, or neighboring Phenix City, Alabama? Thanks so much!
