Or should I look into investing in some other state with 100k? Do I have to put 25% down or is there anyway If I can put 10% or less as a down payment? Pls advice.

Cleveland is one of the best turnkey market and the most popular for investors because of high rental demand and low cost of entry, property prices are pretty inexpensive here. With that said, don’t go for the cheapest house in the market, anything sub 40k nowadays can be a nightmare. The first thing you will want to do is check out this Cleveland Price & Neighborhood Map which will help you have a better understanding of the neighborhoods and general market in Cleveland. Good luck!
