Zachary,Your concerns about Cleveland are valid—high property taxes and stagnant population growth are definitely challenges to consider.

And of course, take advantage of the tax benefits along side my current business income.Viability of the idea?

To navigate the nuance in the laws properly for compliance and to accurately structure our LLC, I am looking to consult with an attorney who knows immigration + business + tax laws. 

Is your DSCR ratio greater than 1-meaning are you cash flowing (according to the lender's criteria of mortgage, property taxes and insurance (and HOA) if applicable).

I'm assuming you are arriving at your cash flow number by applying Gross income - cap ex, maintenance, utilities, vacancy, tax, insurance, mgt, landscape/snow & Debt service?

There are also additional costs of operating and maintaining an LLC, like separate bank accounts, annual report filings, tax filings, etc.2.

I turn over to my insurance company and they are paying for the lawyer to fight the lawsuit. 

The property tax savings are going to be in the ball park of 40-60%, but to be safe you should double your expected repairs budget when calculating the NOI.If you have any other questions, or want a more in-depth response, I would love to help!

These logs regularly end up in the Tax Court and are usually destroyed upon review.
