Talk through a propertyHow Columbus deals
actually look
Columbus and Muscogee County offer investor inventory dominated by single-family rentals, duplexes, and small apartments serving military and healthcare workers. Large 20+ unit institutional multifamily is thinner than in Atlanta, so many deals land in residential or small multifamily DSCR lanes.
Capituro underwrites Columbus properties on the same program splits as the rest of Georgia: unit count and property type determine the lane, not the city name on the contract.
