Frequently Asked Questions About Selling in Columbus
Everything you need to know about getting a cash offer for your Columbus home
Intel's $20 billion semiconductor facility in New Albany is expected to bring 3,000 direct jobs and over 7,000 construction jobs, significantly boosting housing demand in the Columbus metro area. Investors are already pricing in this growth, particularly for properties on the east side of Columbus that are closest to the plant. Even homes that need work are attracting interest from investors anticipating rising rents and values.
Student rental properties near Ohio State are among the most sought-after assets for Columbus investors. Even if the property has seen heavy tenant wear, investors value the location and established rental income. You do not need to renovate or evict current tenants — many investors prefer to acquire occupied properties and continue the rental income stream without interruption.
Ohio charges a real estate conveyance fee of $1 per $1,000 of the sale price at the county level, plus potential municipal transfer taxes (Columbus charges an additional $1 per $1,000). These are relatively modest compared to other states. Most cash investors through FairOffer cover these fees as part of their offer, so your net is what you see.
Neighborhoods like Franklinton, Linden, and the Near East Side are in the early stages of significant revitalization. Investors are particularly aggressive with offers in these areas because they can see the five-to-ten-year trajectory. Properties in transition zones often receive stronger relative offers than those in already-established neighborhoods where margins are tighter.

Selling Your Home in Columbus, Ohio
Columbus has quietly become one of the Midwest's fastest-growing cities, powered by Ohio State University, a thriving tech sector, and Intel's massive semiconductor fabrication plant in nearby New Albany. The city's population has grown steadily while peer cities have stagnated, driving demand across all price ranges. However, the influx of new construction in suburbs like Dublin, Powell, and Westerville has made older homes in Linden, Franklinton, and the Near East Side harder to sell through traditional channels.
Why Cash Offers Work in Columbus
Columbus's new construction boom creates a challenge for sellers of older homes — buyers have a lot of shiny new options. If your property is competing against builder-grade townhomes and new subdivisions, you are at a disadvantage on the MLS. Cash investors specialize in value-add opportunities and see your older home's bones and location as the real asset, not its outdated finishes.
