It turned out to be tree roots on his side so he paid.Now a year and half later they've got sewage in the basement again and are blaming me.

These include Abott labs, Honda, Facebook, Amazon, JP Morgan Chase, Nationwide, Root Insurance.....The list goes on. 2) Logistically you can get to, I think its 80ish% (don't quote me on that number), of the continental US within a 12 hour drive of Columbus, so it will remain a logistical hub. 3) Then there is also Ohio State or "THE" Ohio State as all the natives like to correct you...so that is an economic driver for sure.From a REI point of view I really like that the cost of either a Single Family home in the burbs, or a duplex 5 mins outside downtown is attainable, even for a "normal person" with a day job.

But I'm definitely rooting for him and his companies.JRE - Cybertruck talk

@Stephen Sorenson, I'm rooting for you! 

Add to that as coincidence would have it we recently bought a Sprinter RV so we could drive through Kentucky, Tennessee, Illinois and Indiana exploring our roots and visiting family and friends. 

I'm somewhat new to the game (if you're familiar with the "bamboo" analogy, I'm sending down roots by amassing knowledge), but we will be buying my first BRRRR property in the next 1-2 years. 

@Joshua Loh our brokerage Reafco here in Columbus has built its roots in Virtual Assistants.

In my area there are some old house with clay sewer pipe which are brittle and more prone to break or fail because of root infiltration at the joints.

Most of the action in ONSTL is grass roots, from the ground up approach with effort mainly from the residents.Over all these areas are on the move, and progressing.

If I would have bought in Texas I would not have gotten the same capital gains.I think with Bruce he saw opportunity in 2010 to come back to his home roots of the inland empire and snatch up houses that got crushed in value instead of hold on to Texas or really most mid west properties that don't move a lot in the way of appreciation.Aaron may know more or Even Bruce's son post on BP he might be able to fill in the blanks but that was what I surmised from his presentation in San Jose that evening and again its just my reading between the lines I could be way off on why he told texas to return to CA.
