Welcome George.Being fairly new here my self the best advice I can give is read as much information as you possibly can on Biggerpockets, listen to podcasts subscribe to the youtube channel.

. :)Would be happy to discuss the number granularities through direct communication channels. 

What channel have you use to look for deals? 

While I can't speak for Cleveland, here in Kansas City the $15,000 neighborhoods just have vacant lots with a few houses here and there, there are no jobs in the area, no amenities in the area, the schools are horrible  . . . while that $15,000 could be spent on a down payment a few miles a way in South Kansas City, Raytown, Independence on a $50,000 to $80,000 house and you may not get the same returns on paper as the $`15,000 house, but you have less back end expenses, tenants who have jobs and the desire to feed their kids good food and send their kids to better schools and more occupied houses . . .less vacant lots, so less breakins and theft.Move up on that price range to  an $80,000 to $120,000 neighborhood and you can do even better.  

@Chris Grenier , I was just listening to Rod Khleif's Podcast this morning and a point was made that if you are trying to target retiring investors, you should use a marketing channel that reaches them (i.e.

These are the people you want to befriend, as they will most likely be the ones feeding you deals and you can learn about markets as well!

Well I kinda got what I wish for lol I don't own any proprieties yet, heck I can barely feed myself, but I am dreading going to back to the work force.

Then you lose the properties because the market hasn't recovered and you have run out of money to keep feeding them.This is one example.  

Or is there an online channel I would use to request this information.

Here in the same county, a friend of mine had an large, older ranch home, built in the 50's, on a gorgeous piece of riverfront property (in a very desirable, upscale, neighborhood), that still had the original electrical meter , and the power cable /electrical feed coming into the house right next to the front door!!!
