Quote from @Patrick Drury: @Charles MastenIf you are just jumping into the Columbus market I recommend areas like Hilltop, Linden, Eastmoor/ Whitehall, and Franklinton.

@Sara Donohue I don't recommend buying land if there's not an actionable plan whereby the buyer can build.

Ok, I wasn't spamming (I don't even sell anything I could spam) but I was pasting a "hi" message to new members THE SITE RECOMMENDED TO ME.

IF you want a VA company I can recommend the company we use out of brazil.

I don't ever recommend someone buy a property having never seen or been there.It sounds like @Dustin Hagemaier would be a great resource for you.

Those agents are recommended because they paid to be first on the list.

@Melissa Odom I recommend connecting with a commercial real estate broker to get a broker price opinion on your current value and after-construction value.

Or, in most metro areas, you can obtain the list of permits that have been issued, and see who is receiving permits. 

It's mostly Class A properties, a few Class B.You may find the below copy & paste info useful in addressing your question:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
