@Tony MayoMetro Detroit (my rental portfolio is here)Purchase: $80k-$130kRent: $1200-$1500ROI: Double DigitCash flow: couple hundred/monthAppreciation: Double digit (for past 10 years, will gladly send data)Location: C, B- (suburbs and certain markets)We have over a dozen Fortune 500 companies just in Metro Detroit with huge Healthcare and Auto industries.

But that wouldn't work here.You mentioned the move was related to health care - have you considered the income tax consequences? 

I've looked at Columbus but the price appreciation here is similar to Charlotte and Cincinnati, doesn't look to have as many healthcare jobs/opportunities as Cleveland. 

The house was abandoned and smothered by a just under 60k healthcare lien and extensive litigation from unpaid nursing with the now deceased owner.  

My husband and I are both healthcare workers who are currently considering investing in real estate.

My background is somewhat diverse, as I've worked in a few different industries: Higher Education, Healthcare and Finance.

I am fully prepared to leave healthcare and pursue a career in real estate full time.

It's economy is on a role (stable / diverse industries ...biggest employer is HEB a grocery store as an example, USAA leader in financial services; attracting more health care, etc).  

I'm a database engineer by profession working in a health care industry.
