I've been to M, and Mitchells steak house. Have never eaten at either Hyde Park or Ruth Chris's. While the steaks aren't quite as tender at the Clarmont they're infinately cheaper.

I will also be taking some classes at OSU. While in Pittsburgh I bought a double and rented out half which helped pay the mortgage.</p> <p>I have had a chance to look a bit in depth at a couple of areas in Columbus and am thinking Highland West (Hilltop) or Weinland Park. </p> <p>Highland West seems pretty residential and easy access via bike and car to downtown via Broad and McKinley. It also has some nice parks (holton, rhodes etc). The housing stock seems very affordable. I am not sure how easy it would be to get tenants.</p> <p>Weinland Park seems also to have a central location and also easy access via bike and car. I have heard it might be a little rougher than Highland West as far as crime. I believe it would be easier to find tenants there (closer to OSU and amenities). I have also heard that property values are increasing due to gentrification.</p> <p>I really like getting my feet wet and would rather buy and gain equity in some property. I think having a tenant mitigates some of the risk. Can anyone give their opinions on these two areas - pros and cons etc?</p> <p>thank you </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/suburban-to-urban#post-413565 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 21:18:18 +0000 ChrisSunami 413565@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>I've been having an extended conversation via PM with controversial new poster Gig3000, and while I think she herself realizes she didn't give an ideal first impression, she does have some real and important questions that deserve answers. For all us committed urbanists, I think we need to make an extra effort to be supportive of anyone who is contemplating leaving the suburbs for the city, at whatever age, and for whatever reasons. </p> <p>One of Gig's main questions is what expectations should someone who has never lived in a city before have about making the move, and what advice should they be given.</p> <p>Since I've never lived in a non-urban area, I don't necessarily have a whole lot to contribute. I've given the general advice of keeping an open mind, being flexible, and also being smart and aware about your surroundings, and which parts of the neighborhood are safe and which are not. But maybe some people on here have made the transition from suburbs to city life and have more to offer. </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/bexley-safe-or-unsafe#post-414377 Mon, 23 Jan 2012 13:32:06 +0000 anj197 414377@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>Considering that I am still somewhat new to the Columbus area, I'm a bit lost on just what areas are considered decent/safe to live in and which ones are not. </p> <p>I'm currently in Worthington and I honestly think its a bit too far up north or my tastes. I'd like to be closer to the city, where I work (Whitehall) and where I currently go to my one class at CSCC. So, taking a look around with a map, I pointed out Bexley to a few of my friends.</p> <p>Reactions: Mixed feelings about the area. Some say Bexley is great, while others state that its just not safe. This is usually the case with any part of a city but I always take opinions into consideration, especially from people who have lived here a while. </p> <p>Using a site for recent apartment listings (metro-rentals.com), I came across as few areas that stated that they were near Bexley through the rental company <a href="http://www.suburban-rentals.com/wfaco/default.htm">Wallace F. Ackley Co. </a> (If anyone has dealt with this company before, please give me your opinions of them). A few of the apartments are on the following streets:<br /> Kenwick Road<br /> Eastmoor Blvd.<br /> Sherwood Road</p> <p>Based off of the information, would it be smart of me to take a look at these apartments? If you think I should scrap them all together, does anyone have any ideas of where I can look in the general vicinity? </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/marketing-photos-for-real-estate#post-414305 Mon, 23 Jan 2012 10:23:28 +0000 joshlapp 414305@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>Hello CU-</p> <p>I am looking for a photographer to take some marketing photos of some homes.
