We wanted to see how high-up Columbus rents go and what type of perks come with luxury renting. What we’ve found out is that the most fabulous rental homes ask up to almost $3,000/month and flaunt awesome locations (either in bustling downtown or in a quiet cul-de-sac away from the public eye), plenty of indoor and outdoor space, and state-of-the-art amenities – and that’s not all!
