I am not too familiar with the Cleveland market but I'd be really surprised if the only deals that appear to work are in D/F neighborhoods, it strikes me as a market that should have workable deals in better neighborhoods. 

They take some technique or strategy that’s only workable or beneficial in a very tiny percentage of situations and generalize it as a major breakthrough.  

The city does have a few rules but they are workable. 

I'm looking for constructive criticism of the idea to see if it's workable (which isn't the same as building a strawman and criticizing it).

But in the meantime, we should all work together to find workable solutions.

Learn what makes a deal and how to generate workable leads.

Has any Investor/Rehabber or Wholesaler known of or been involved in a workable business model whereby the Investor funds a large percentage of the Wholesalers marketing costs in order to be given first refusals on every deal?  

Set your MLS criteria to 5+ bedrooms and estimate rent at $800 a bedroom and you'll see 2-4 workable deals a month. 

Nevertheless, after a brief phone call to gather some information if the property sounds like it could be workable then they will more than likely be willing to setup a meeting (motivated).

:-D MDR definitely doable :)Houseboat might be the only workable investment there right now.
