Why it may work

Investor-ready fundamentals

Renovated interiorNew roof & sidingFull basementFenced yardNo HOANear OSU & CMH

Compact square footage can help control furnishing, cleaning, utility, and maintenance exposure, while the fenced yard and proximity to major Columbus demand drivers support multiple guest or tenant profiles.

Important underwriting notes

The home is offered unfurnished. A short-term rental launch would require furnishings, housewares, photography, insurance review, operational setup, and a valid City of Columbus permit before listing; those startup costs are not included above. Long-term figures are gross-rent scenarios before vacancy, maintenance, management, utilities, insurance, taxes, financing, and other ownership costs.
