Hello,I'm an out-of-state investor exploring BRRRR deals in Cleveland, OH, and Buffalo, NY.

There are some great opportunities in the Ohio markets.

I used to define markets by state but now we do by zip codes and strategy. there's 440 zips in ohio, 7 of which we do business in which are downtown columbus and that is the urban core and urban core adacjent. rents are higher, property values are higher, developer and density friendly, low risk land or infill land, plus fastest appreciation in the market.

My thoughts are to purchase a duplex in Cleveland or somewhere in Ohio.

Oh I seethere are 2 options1.

nothing against Ohio.  

I would like to know what my options are to make sure tenants in a duplex are actually paying their water bills. Ideally, I would like to have each unit get a connection metered by the city, but is that even possible?...

I'm currently interested in metro areas in Ohio, namely Dayton, Cincinnati, and Akron, as well as Huntsville and Tuscaloosa, AL.

I say go for a walk instead and listen to some long form interview, aka a podcast, like this one on real estate deals gone south.These are the inflation report Cliff Notes (Oh man!

Welcome to the Ohio market!
