It sounds like you're on the right path, learning from mentors and connecting with like-minded individuals.As you look to move into buy-and-hold strategies, particularly with multifamily properties and commercial apartments, I wanted to extend an offer.

Cheaper than anything on the MLS and it was owner financed.Guess what my reason was for taking this great deal to this particular Joint Venture partner?

Granted, it's Ohio and not seeing appreciation like we've seen in Florida - but this area in particular is seemingly healthy. 

Please note that snow in particular has been scarce the last few years in the lakes region, which means snowmobiling and skiing the past few years has been more north (Maine).

Depending on the exact location of your duplex, this could be an ideal opportunity to rent by the room, particularly given the area's demand from hospital systems and Case Western Reserve University students who are always on the lookout for housing.

If you get serious about a particular unit ask to see the associations bylaws/rules/and regulations.

This particular JV was structured to encourage a quick turnaround by increasing the rate of return if not completed and on the market by month 4.

I would disagree with the push for 19121, particularly N 27th Street.

My questions follow, Id love to hear from anyone who has experience with this type of situation particularly with DADSON. 

Depending on your team, I've seen the ALTA provider also offer that, you can coordinate with your architects, or you can work directly with the municipality.It is particularly helpful if you are making renovations or development changes to an existing structure where zoning regulations may have changed from the existing structure to the present alterations.
