I am new to BP and also a rookie investor and looking to purchase my first property. I am located in Mass but have been targeting Cleveland as my first market. Open to networking with anyone in the market with any advice, tips, etc. Much appreciated!

Welcome aboard Dave. Having sold over $200 Million in Cleveland rental property to out of state investors, the biggest advice I can give to you is for you to really dig deep into the neighborhoods by reading The Ultimate Guide to Grading Cleveland Neighborhoods. 

I imagine you are coming here to invest because Mass is so much more expensive and tenant friendly? This is why the majority of investors come here, but many times they get into trouble by overpaying for really cheap properties that are still overpriced. They end up comparing them to properties from where they live instead of digging down into the comps of the neighborhood. That guide above is designed to help you avoid that.
