I'm curious, do you see properties in the Cleveland area costing $200k and commanding $1300 in rent? 

There are a few areas inside the loop that command a slightly lower price point, but in my opinion any major redevelopment there is likely to be farther off.

Usually, incidents that are outliers are not ones that command lots of brain power, they need a simple business solution. 

In any sales (a convincing presentation) meeting you need to have command of the meeting, you need the right mind set to begin with, you are the expert, not them (doesn't mean to be arogant).

Add-Value:Property seems to not have coin laundry - projecting an additional 200 (monthly)Rehab may command higher rentroll - projecting 1150 per unit (rentometer median)Appreciation - even though I am in California, I am discounting appreciation since it is MF and is less liquidNotes: 1.

The people that do it right command a premium for their services and are actively sought out by investors.Best wishes on your journey!

In some areas, that artist lofts commands more rent for no upgrades.Great problem you have there...

As an added benefit, your residents will save on their hot water bills which means you can command slightly more rent- or your tenants will be slightly less likely to leave due to the lower utility bills.

So it's not a "lowball" offer.A common mistake I see is new investors making true "lowball" offers on retail properties that command retail prices.I wrote a blog that might help you find an agent in the area.

I have been, so far, disappointed with the work and pay that I have been able to command with my education in this market.
