I currently work for General Electric Aviation full-time and just recently started this real estate journey part-time.

I plan to become an agent, and eventually invest in properties, particularly buy and hold with a focus on aircrew as tenants.I left the aviation field and am really going for something way out of my comfort zone for the first time in my life.

Boeing and GE Aviation are also making significant investments in the area.  

Food inspectors, aviation inspectors.

I know perhaps easier said than done, but I guess its persistence until you get it right.One of my recent property purchases was in Aviation Sub, nice tree lined street.This property is approximately 1400 sq foot.Purchase Price - $36,000Rehab - $5000  (rent ready)Rehab (rent ready)  $975 per monthI am currently loading up. will be closing on a foreclosure in the next week or so.

Out of Bud Whalen Aviation.

I think there are better areas to park your money.Have you looked at Bagley, Aviation Sub, University District???

If your into flying its one of the very best aviation sites for interaction etc. 

Well being in private aviation myself for most of my adult life and having owned a few airplanes..

Economic growth, relatively affordable, fair landlord laws, plenty of deals still to be had, birthplace of aviation and the womb of American Football 😁 I grew up here and am very familiar with the Columbus area as a fellow investor and real estate professional.
