I'm looking to purchase my first property with my fiancé (both 25) with the goal being to establish our primary residence together, as well as giving me the opportunity to add equity/value via rehab before moving on and converting the property into a rental within a year or so to kickstart an investment portfolio.An interesting lead that recently came up is my parent's neighbor's house.

Eliminate debt, establish a budget, and save.

More important than identifying target areas is establishing relationship with a local investor-friendly professional who has personal experience in investing in Cleveland.

If we hope to be in business over the long term, we have to establish "fair and reasonableness." 

I am trying to invest in a certain market and I am curious as to how many realtors i should be reaching out to and trying to establish relationships in that particular area.

The area has attracted a lot of new young professionals with their work from home marketing that gives $10,000 to qualified families to help them establish themselves in the area.

When it's a well established company like Apple, they aren't likely to be going out of business so there is some certainty that there will be in increase in demand for quite some time.

Our goal is to establish a structure where the property owner can secure financing based on the long-term lease with the operational company.Any advice or insights from those who have navigated similar situations would be greatly appreciated!

The city itself is established, older neighborhoods, better city amenities (museums, arts/music etc), more pro sports, more hills, bigger river, has a streetcar, arguably better nightlife overall.
