Haven’t looked into Columbus at all, this is my first investment property and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t super nervous

Everyone has been super helpful so far and I really appreciate the feedback I'm getting!

I’m not super savvy with the market there and I know a lot of it will depend on the university and major employers there (hospitals etc).

Super cool.

Very insightful and super helpful.

Google has a super simple principle and interest mortgage calculator if you type in “mortgage Caculator”.

Hey @Sean McKee - I don't know that area super well, but I know @Eudith Vacio has some units in East Chicago as @Paul De Luca mentioned.I will just say the real estate market in general is softer and then includes rentals.....not nearly as many people move in the winter and in general during a slower economy. 

Hey Luke, good question and super valid... especially if they have been a good tenant for years.

@Robert Lindsley  Well maybe some of the INDY folks can chime in however I can assure you that 40k all in   In indy is maybe not a war zone but its an area that will be a super challenge to own and maintain..

It was a slower burn here, and we didn't see any sort of massive jump in rental demand, just a steady rise, and it was limited to certain neighborhoods.Conversely, our local homebuilding associations and tradesmen unions were DEVASTATED.
