I'm a broker and can generally find very competitive rates in your price range.

Glad it's not a competition.

And Ohio itself has 2 professional baseball and 2 professional football teams, a professional basketball team(Cleveland), THE Ohio State Buckeyes are always a competitive college team in multiple sports.  

You are probably in a good location to do real estate and having cash should help you with the competition out there.  

I have used several title companies and have the following requirements:  1) easy to work with, 2) make me a priority and move the process efficiently, 3) good communication, 4) competitive fees, and 5) mobile close service.If you are military or have someone in the direct family who is/was you might consider One Nation Title (formerly First Republic). 

Home buyers purchased townhomes and condos each at roughly 10 percent of the time and other types of homes less frequently".My area is similar in that it's saturated with new apartment complexes but single family housing still seems to be holding up against their competition.

This is quite a competitive advantage over other buyers.

Hello all,I'm looking for areas of Fort Worth to invest in buy-and-hold properties, but there is a tremendous amount of competition and I have lost out on several properties with multi-offer situations despite having perfect credit and financing in place.  

It is quite a competitive market and  prices have gone up pretty quickly over the last few years.  

In a very competitive market, I have to be prepared to put 3% to 5% EM down.
