New to investing in the Cleveland area.
Hello all! I recently purchased a duplex in Old Brooklyn thanks to Matt Motil and I am excited about adding to my portfolio. Just wanted to drop in and say hello to everybody!
I really like the BRRRR concept and have been scouring all of my deal sources for 2 - 4 units properties including emails I receive from a few providers and hope to find another that fits soon. I also am interested in 5+ units where I can add some value.
Hope to get to know you all soon.

100%, unless you are feeling very risky. The area near the Cleveland Clinic in University Circle is amazing and has really turned around in the last 2 years. They are redeveloping a lot. However, the actual city of East Cleveland is not a really good city. They cannot even afford simple city services anymore. The city of Cleveland near the clinic is nice, the city of East Cleveland is NOT.
