The PE investment feeding frenzy that started up 15 years ago as TOH parks started getting gobbled up is starting to slow as supply tightens. 

I understand this is a good way to become financially secure over time and am eager to start.  

A great way to start is by learning how to analyze deals and exploring strategies like buy-and-hold or house hacking.

Im now starting to doubt wether or not Cleveland is actually a good market to invest in?

Paulette, it is good to call out these bad contractors and unfortunately you are caught in a bad situation on what to do, start by a small threat that you will contact the BBB and report a claim if he does not show some progress, or if you know an attorney, maybe a simple letter from one may get him worried and he may start showing up.

It sounds like you are off to a great start for 2025 and have a good plan.Finding good deals is often the most difficult part of the process.

Starting to look at possibly investing there.Great, but also expensive and competitive.
