You need to always be changing with the market, testing and poking to see what marketing works better and what does not work at all. 

The way to find it starts with testing and challenging yourself and your system.  100% during hot time is one thing.

Quote from @Joseph Bushnell: I'm testing out the idea of building a data center and I was wondering if anybody has heard of owning the building and having a third party operate the data center itself.  

I tend to do a quick dirty look at a building like JW with price per door, but after that sniff test, I quickly like to understand $Cost/SF and $rent/SF.The way I look at a single family, 2-4 units, or a 20 unit is all different, but the end result is still ROI or IRR (over time). 

and usually take the state test to get the license and skip the federal part of the test ..

For example, if the area is rural you might wish to have the house inspected, the well tested, and the septic system inspected by separate services.

Did you only remove the drywall and flooring and not do any testing? 

I generally agree that buying SFH as first investment is an easy way to test the waters; however, if you’re set on REI I suggest buying a duplex or quad.

In all my years of Property Management in one of the most tenant friendly Cities in the World, I bet there will be a lot of interested people, regardless if they are actually planning on buying in a tenant friendly City.My management style would be considered highly unusual as I approach these issues so that it becomes a win-win situation and take into account the human element of the tenant.There is potential for me to add more to that Podcast to include how the Portfolio did over the 28 years growth period (1998 to 2025) with real numbers.There will be things like making the Portfolio safer as I age by paying off the Mortgages and increasing cash flow, etc.I'm also a Cloud Software developer (Salesforce specifically) and will be employing a lot of A.I. in 2025.The RE Portfolio is cash flowing very well and I can afford to integrate experimental A.I. to test it out.Things like A.I.

As @Patrick Drury mentioned- the West Side does not have any POS areas (besides Lakewood, but it's only needed for previously non-owner occupied/rental properties) Something else to consider in Cleveland proper is Lead Safe Testing ..
