As a recent medical school grad about to start as a resident physician in July, really interested to hear if anyone else got started in real estate investing as a physician or healthcare professional.

I was laser focused on the development business, which undoubtedly shaped me into who I am today.Nowadays I have the experience and confidence to expand into other niche's (I've recently bought and sold a couple of medical condos for example).

Intel is a great example, who is building the largest chip manufacturing plant in the US right here, and it will be a $20 billion dollar investment that brings a few new thousand jobs.https://www.dispatch.com/story/business/2022/01/21/intel-ohio-building-computer-chip-factories-licking-county-jersey-township/9173472002/ Another example of economic growth is the upcoming Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Inpatient Hospital which is a 1.9million square foot hospital that will bring over 800 new beds and a thousand new jobs. https://abc6onyourside.com/news/local/new-osu-hospital-expected-to-transform-health-careHere are a few more recent investments https://www.10tv.com/article/money/business/hydrogen-power-company-hyperion-bringing-700-jobs-to-columbus/530-25907aab-5517-4661-a9f3-d2ed2d5be6b0 https://news.wosu.org/news/2022-02-08/rumpke-to-build-50-million-recycling-facility-in-columbus Check out The Complete Guide to the Columbus, Ohio Real Estate Market which goes through the Columbus, Ohio market in depth and will give you a better scope of where the highest levels of growth are taking place and where to look to invest.

If you're in an area that caters to major medical centers like Mayo or Cleveland Clinic demand is still strong.

@Michael LopezI rent bedrooms to medical workers.

he was about to undergo some extreme medical treatments.

i just rented a unit in just a few days with a 780 credit score and income 4.5 x monthly rent, however this is in NY and supply is very limited. i wouldnt go below the 650 range on credit score unless it was due to something like medical bills not being paid. you may be better off waiting for the right person to come along and rent your unit. id rather have it vacant then have someone in there that i cant get out and thats going to trash the place. you need to adhere to the standard guidelines. a) find a person who has the ability and is willing to pay and b) have someone you can reasonably collect from. someone with below a 640 credit score seems like they may fail point number 2. good luck

We get a lot of inquiries from travel medical professionals and even couples who are traveling academics or relocating to the area.

My medical payment insurance is only 5k.

@Nathan Olds I Completly agree, the Marijuana issue is a hot topic for many reasons, not the least being that it's still a Federal Crime.In AZ we haven't seen any Federal enforcement action for the small time, medical user or regular user.
