@Jeff EbertRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I am looking to gradually start buildling my team again and would appreciate solid references  for the following specifically in the Cleveland, Ohio area :- Investor friendly real estate agent - small bank lenders/ private lenderes- inspectors- appraisers- contractors Thanks in advance, and happy hunting :)

Are there specific websites I can refer to?

IE FSBO, off-market deals..The deal I'm referring to was an expired listing, though if it was on-market I can still make an offer and state in writing that the selling agent isn't the dual agent and will not be representing me; this will typically save the seller 3%.  

I explain I will proceed with the eviction, the eviction will show with any decent credit/background check and will negatively impact their credit score, that I will attempt to garnish future wages, and that it will be very difficult for them to ever rent a nice place in a low vacancy area like San Diego.As part of my tenant criteria: no evictions ever (no excuses accepted), decent credit (I want tenant to have credit such as they do not want it to take a significant hit, strong LL references and in the add I specifically specify paying rent alone does not suffice for a strong LL recommendation.I recognize with my number of units and how many years I have been a landlord, I have been fortunate to never having to evict a tenant and at some point my good fortune in this matter will end.  

In reference to finding the best contractors, I highly recommend networking and getting to know high volume investors in your area and asksing them for recommendations.

Negative, if you could refer me to one it could be greatly appreciated

To that end you could do regular inspections to identify issues before they grow into bigger problems.
