I may be able to recommend a great investor-friendly Metro Atlanta agent/broker, depending on your needs.

I'm right outside of metro Atlanta.

The city councils are largely to blame for such high rents in metro areas.  

I have flipped a number of properties as well as wholesaled 100's of the homes to investors through the metro.

Closed transactions, product type, location density classification (metro, suburbs, rural, etc.)

Can anyone here suggest a good realtor and/or property management company in the Columbus metro area?  

I have 3 optionsa) Sell it and take the capital gain (45K or 56K including net invest takes) and re invest the profit back into another rental property that may not be cash flow positive in the area) b) Keep the rental and continue as long as I want and exchange it 1031 later point in time.c) Take the profit and reinvest in stocks or pay my primary residence56 tax gain is no brainer but considering I need to reinvest in the same area (metro) to get another rental, Is it worth doing 75K transaction cost.  

I know some folks that have found the Longmont and Loveland more affordable without the huge commute that you would have from the Denver metro area.

I can help you there.But the numbers look something like the spreadsheet at:Average Cash Flow Per Door In Phoenix Metro Areahttps://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/600/topics/584916-average-cash-flow-per-door-in-phoenix-metro-area

Another thing I would check into is whether there is a net positive or net negative movement into the metro area you are looking at.
