I'm not super educated on Columbus, so I would let a Columbus agent tell you about their market and I will tell you about this one, and you can make your choice, shooting a message now!

I'll be happy to refer your partner whenever there's a client ready to start a project.

@Josh Feit, as an Atlanta agent extremely familiar with this area, I know precisely which location this is in and the property type you're referring to.

Hi, yes Ohio is a good choice to invest in the real estate market.

Sometimes a refi or HELOC can be an alternative if you want to hold onto the property.If I were in your shoes, I would start looking at a refi first and see if that would be the most beneficial choice. 

If you prefer steady cash flow and lower risk, Ohio is a solid choice.

38116 and 38118 are the areas Im referring to and I have a Podcast where I break down the stats and all details of those areas.

for folks in So cal  I think Vegas is a great choice   1. you can drive there   keep in mind flying to other parts of the country to check on property is going to eat up 1 months rent if you go annually.2.

Hocking, Vinton, and Perry counties would be my first choice when purchasing a property. 

For property managers, I have good PM referrals in Columbus and Cleveland that I refer all of my clients too.
