Check out The Ultimate Guide to Grading Cleveland Neighborhoods before spending any money on a Cleveland rental property.

I understand as someone new to real estate investing there is a lot to learn and even though I have read many books, until I do it myself for a few years, I will be far from an expert.

You've definitely come to the right place to build connections and learn, but you want to pair these forums, books, and podcasts with in-person real estate investing meetups in your area.

Quote from @Jason Seay: I address this in my book and I have an addendum in my forms package.

Nevermind the unlikelihood that any ONE of them is appearing in the top 10 that often (especially at the rate we're getting bookings, I know we're not showing up on the 1st page nearly that often), it's statistically impossible for 30 listings to show up in the top ten 50% of the time even if our 30 listings were the only ones in the entire market, instead of there being 20,000 other listings.It makes no sense. 

Not sure if his new book covers which states have exceptions to the rule but reach out to him. 

You can always buy the books and learn all there is if you have the time.

Little did I know I was going to stumble across some books mentioning bigger pockets, start listening to their podcast, and make a post saying this house is now going to be a fix and flip!
