Quote from @Andrea Lucarelli: I’m interested in beginning my REI career with purchasing a SFH or condo in Cleveland area (safe neighborhood) to list as a furnished rental for travel medical professionals, supply corporate housing needs, or house temporarily displaced families for insurance companies.  

I've called the attorney general and the city housing authority.

I don't disagree with a lot of your sentiments but the numbers don't work on duplexes in our market anymore like a traditional duplex where people want to house hack so in my opinion a triplex is the best. it also allows you to have highest asset value possible. in terms of our single family spec homes compared to our spec triplexes the triplex build to rent have the most interest. 

I've house hacked twice in Reno, NV and it's changed my life.

I’d lean Stessa assuming you’re not house hacking. 

Leverage your construction skills for flips, start with smaller projects to minimize risk, and consider house hacking or long-term rentals for a steady income.

Who owns the house, your or the LLC?

I am trying to hire a licensed REA for my LLC to perform occasional open houses and move-in/move-out inspections since I am out-of state from my rental property.I have the REA identified, now I just need to know the steps to creating a contract for them and me to sign.

I'm considering buying a house in nearby Palm Coast as I travel there for business.

I have my dad’s house (he passed 2 years ago) and am wanting to rehab it & rent it.
