Hi Looking to start investing in Ohio, what are your thoughts about these 2 cities. What is a better ROI?


 It's not really a situation where one is better than the other. Each market has their own pro's and con's.

Columbus is the better market for long term appreciation as the population trends and job market are better.

However,

Cleveland is much more affordable and has a ton of Section 8 inventory with price to rent ratio's that Columbus doesn't touch.

 I'm with @James Wise here. 

Depends on what you are looking for and your hold time. If you are looking to hold for the long hall I would say Columbus as appreciation seems to have a bright future. 

 My plan is to make some cash flow now but hold for at least 10 years. Still planning to work my full time job for at least another 10 years. This will be my retirement plan.

As a newbie out of state real-estate investor, I'm wondering who do you hire to do a walk thru of a potential property if you find it off market( without an agent). Do you line up a property manager or pay a fee to a realtor to do the walk-through.
