What to look for when buying a fixer upper in Ohio?

I'm looking to buy a fixer upper in Ohio but there are so many properties for sale there. What are some tips on what type of property to acquire and renovate that is likely to sell faster?

If unsure I would recommend catching a flight to the area and go see 10+ properties. Cleveland and Dayton are 3+ hours apart so I would probably pick on or the other. We are in the Akron area but service Cleveland as well. Cleveland is going to be more competitive that the Dayton market.

Why are you looking for a fixer upper? Do you have a contractor that you plan on using or are you figuring all of that out later?


Best of luck!
