I actually just bought a duplex that was on the market last month in cleveland. 

Then, more advanced stuff that those without licenses will have a tough time with: active real estate agents working the area - so i can call them to preview my house - in case they run into potential buyers they know of in their office, Then, I have Listingbook software on my I-phone ( Works with MLS data- by subscription)- that actually knows the number of searches of homes in any given area - so I can blast a promotion of my house to all the agents that have clients looking in the area (not just my subdivision -unless that is what I want), and...for the investor in me: track all the mortgages recorded against the property, so I know how low of an offer I can make - based on the mortgages on the property.

It could be helpful to you (lenders will want to see lease agreements) and it is good for the family member (they actually could do a program where them paying rent increases credit).

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

Well I guess because it does require real work they have to actually find the deals coordinate the rehab and get them sold..

Last 2 years single family has continued to increase due to limited supply even as rates are where they are (which is not actually high).
