Welcome! I am an investor here in Columbus. Always happy to connect! @Celestin Youmbi

For house hacking, I usually take the approach of buying something in a nicer area. You will only have very few times in your life you can buy in these neighborhoods with such little money out of pocket.The numbers won't look great, just try and make sure you aren't negative when you move. The tenant pool is much better and they go up more in value. Thats what I did for my first one in Columbus. @Robert Mendenhall

C and B areas are typically where a lot of investors target, but everyone has different goals. As others said, its best to drive some neighborhoods of the market you are looking into. @Jonathan Rivera

There are a handful of markets in the state, just depends on your goals. @Account Closed

As some of the others said, its important to see where if you are looking for appreciation, cashflow but still at a price in your budget. There are plenty of markets in the Midwest. @Alice Yang

All of the neighborhoods you just mentioned is what I would say. Hungarian village is the furthest out for development but it will get there eventually. Have you developed before? @Mike K.

Heart and Home, Ohio Elite and ERA are all good for that area. @ron 

@Ron Sidwell

Depends on the area for which PM. What part of Columbus is it in? @Ron Sidwell

What type of loan product are you looking for? @Mike Wilcher Jr

If you can find a market closer to home, I usually recommend that. Start having some conversations with others here on BP and you should be able to get pointed int he right direction. Best of luck! @Farah Tatis
