I worked on one side for almost 3 years and never locked the door once and never had an issue with theft of anything. 

I have a Cleveland Single Family home that is almost identical to a property in Akron, and my property in Akron has appreciated steadily over 3% in the time I have had it, the house in Cleveland holds maybe a $10k increase in value in the same amount of time. 

Just make sure you have coverage for the theft, and a plan for the home while it is vacant.

The houses are identical, except for the dormer we have on ours.

A little back story on my situation:I currently own one single family rental (almost identical to the one I am currently trying to purchase) in Milwaukee, WI.

It is your calling card online, your digital identity.

Purchase price: $490,000 Cash invested: $98,000 4 Plex - 2 Story Townhomes - 3 Bed 2.5 bath identical layouts.

There isn't substantial signage, but the buildings are only between 12-18 units and aren't "identical", but it's a thought. 2.

We used to get a few people a day complaining or bouncing because we ask for identity verifications, income, background check, etc. before showings.

Interesting studies where people who were given a free coffee mug valued that mug at far more than they were willing to pay for an identical mug.
