I am getting listing from brokers across the US (across states and cities), and I would love to follow your approach.

@Stefano Grottoli all the $1550 means with CMHA is they will pay up to that amount within Cleveland city limits.

I listened to some of these gurus (including a few people on BP) about acquiring doors to have "financial freedom" and bought 2 Class C properties in Indianapolis, not hating the city just my choice of property purchases - that cash flow on paper has turned out to be -$300 to -$500 a month.

@Frank Newsome the profile you started here on BP yesterday, doesn't show where you are from.So, not sure how you picked those 4 markets, other than they are all in Michigan.We're in the Metro Detroit market, not the other 3.Our website has a map showing all the cities in Macomb, Oakland & Wayne Counties, that make up Metro Detroit. 

We just bought an easement from the City Of Rochester and they hired an appraiser to give a third party valuation. 

Also she is working with us with city ordinances to  see if down the road we can change it from a LTR to a STR.last two- three years my wife and I have been property managing it from across the country using handymen as our boots on the ground and I remodeled the house with contractors inbetween tenants .

Just trying to figure out what city or town will be good to invest in planning to live there for a year and then invest in another property and so on.

The City of Alexandria is bound by the Potomac, Arlington, and Fairfax county.

You need to just take the home you want to do this with and get some pricing (and make sure the city will let you do it). 

Can you take it to the city to get it permitted?
