The Columbus Opportunity

Central Ohio's Economic Boom is Creating Non-QM Demand

Intel's $28 billion semiconductor facility in New Albany is the largest private investment in Ohio history. It's bringing thousands of contractors, engineers, and support workers to Franklin County — many of whom are self-employed or 1099 and can't qualify for a conventional mortgage.

Amazon and Google data center investments, a booming Ohio State University research ecosystem, and sustained population growth have made Columbus one of the strongest real estate markets in the Midwest. Rental vacancy rates are at historic lows, and investor demand for DSCR loans is surging.

"Columbus was named one of the National Association of Realtors' Top 10 Housing Hot Spots for 2026, driven by job growth, affordability, and the Intel effect."
