Foreign investor looking to start flipping in Cleveland OH metro

[Alex Khodnev]

Hello BP community!!

My name is Alex Khodnev, I am an Industrial engeneer from Israel. SInce a last few years I have a dream to invest in real estate in US.

Last year I took a class about investing and started reading BP forums and listening to a podcasts. Now it feels me a right time to act :) 

My plan is start a RE business based on fix and flip strategy focused on Cleveland OH metro. My short term goals are:

1. Make a research about Cleveland Metro. Understand about where is the areas with good schools district and reasonable crime ratio. Generally there should be a SFH built at 80's and older, ARV around 100-150K, mostly owner occupied.

2. Connect with a local wholesalers and RE agents expirienced with flip investors, and get on their mailing list.

3. Recieve a recommentions about few local general contractors for future rehab.

4. Keep listeting to PB podcasts and learn more.

5. NETWORKING.

If anybody have any suggestion or recommendation about written above, please feel free to PM me.

Thanks BP for all the info and good luck to everyone.
