New in Northeast Ohio, Akron/Canton/Massillon area
Greeting! I decided to become a member of BiggerPockets because it keeps coming up in my search results and the replies to posts seem relative and make a lot of sense.
I have 2 rentals in the areas mentioned and am considering buying 2 more in the North Hill, Akron area. My plan is to learn as much as possible from others in the business and copy their success. I'd love to hear from others in my area!

Welcome to Bigger Pockets
@Andrew Fisher, good to have you here, as a contractor, homeowner with a paid off mortgage, and a few rentals under your belt, I'm sure you will have valuable insights to contribute to the forum.
The most sucessfull, profitable rehabbers I know locally are also contractors.
Good to have you here!
