Most high growth markets like Indianapolis or Columbus won't hit 1% rules in good areas.

It's also how I started when I moved here in Columbus OH from Portland OR.As for property management, honestly, it depends on your time and interest level.

Hi Matt, if you're looking for cash flowing 2-4 unit properties, I'd definitely recommend looking at Columbus Ohio!

I have a couple of single family homes in Cincinnati, but most of my portfolio is in Columbus.

In Columbus, you can still find the 1% rule and there's amazing appreciation potential due to how much population growth, job growth, and companies moving/developing there (recently Anduril just announced another 4,000 jobs coming to Columbus Ohio on top of Intel, Google, Amazon, FB, Nationwide, Ohio State University, etc.).

We build a stacked triplex in columbus ohio but you could do it anywhere that land makes sense.

North Linden, South of Main, Vassor Village, Woodland Park, MT Vernon, Milo-Grogan, Franklinton, Merrion Village, Hungarian Village, Southern Orchards, Driving Park, Olde Towne East, Franklin Park, King Lincoln, Old Oaks, Livingston Park are all but not limited to some areas in Columbus, Ohio I think will gentrify quickly and make for great long term buy and holds.

There are other submarkets of Columbus like upper Arlington that have higher like $500 per square foot but the purchases are tear downs at $200 per square foot so the real exit is $300 or so.

If this seems like an avenue you're interested in there's a PassivePockets conference in Columbus this May, it can be hard to find syndication conferences that is geared toward LPs (the passive investors) aren't actually just a sales funnel for one particular group 3.

I would recommend looking into Columbus Ohio!
