Does anyone have any referrals for a plumber that can replace polybutylene water lines in a house, and then possibly a recommendation on a contractor that can do the patchwork after the job?

.- I recommend avoiding condos. 

Also, can anyone recommend a reliable company for this?

@Raiyan KhanYou can search these forums for vendor recommendations but you can also join a real estate investment club in the area you want to invest and get the same info.

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

But wanted to say that I highly recommend checking out REIA for Oh and/or Cincinnati and Dayton.

Hello Andrew,I’d recommend starting by finding an agent who specializes in rental properties.

I have a recommendation for a nice PM that does really well. 

Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?
