Columbus also has great macroeconomics - lots of job growth, population growth, and major employers developing here.

If the developer can do better than 35%, then the deal becomes even more profitable for them.

Should I play harder and get into land development?  

Most properties I’m looking at are for infill development when working remote. 

For example, here in Columbus Ohio, you have amazing macros (population growth, job growth, and companies moving and developing here like Intel headquarters, Amazon, FB, Google, Nationwide, and recently Anduril AND you can still find positive cash flow and the 1% rule here PLUS there's AMAZING appreciation potential.2.

Buying turnkey rentals, you are generally paying more and allowing the provider to capture the profit from developing the property.

It's one of the hottest markets in the US right now with so much population growth, job growth, and companies moving/developing here (26B Intel headquarters being built here, 68K+ enrollment in Ohio State University, Amazon, FB, Google, Honda, Nationwide, Anduril, etc.).

It's worth taking the time to understand what you're doing so you can develop your own conviction and confidence.

within days Wagner comes up with this Brennah oaks development and markets aggressively and even wrote a book.another few months I get a note from real wealth (Kathy Fetke’s group) through which I met my turnkey providers and they said they have cut ties with Jean Gillen and anyone associated with that group. so for my risk appetite I didn’t and wouldn’t do business with them and I live an hour from ocala. 

I am now looking to get into new construction development in the PG, Montgomery, and Rockville county areas of Maryland.
