Is anyone familiar with the rental market in and around Cleveland, OH?
I may be relocating there for work, and was considering buying a multi-family home to live in while I rent the other unit out.
I don't have a lot of money, $140K is my max. There is plenty to buy well under $100K but the neighborhoods likely aren't the greatest.
Can anyone suggest any areas surrounding Cleveland where there is minimal blight, and $140K will get you into a fairly clean neighborhood?

I would look in Shaker Heights. Very high property taxes, but really nice area to live and rent out half a duplex or something like that. There are some really sketchy areas in Cleveland for Multifamily, especially to house hack. Be careful!!
