Cleveland is an excellent market to invest in real estate.

Just relax when someone points out facts, you transacted at an excellent time, there's nothing wrong or bad about that.

There's no one size fits all approach to real estate investing and depending on your resources, skill set, and capabilities you may excel in one particular market or utilizing a specific strategy whereas another investor will excel using a different approach.  

Hi Jake-Thanks for the advice- I currently keep photos of all recipets and have updated excel sheets with all costs associated to each property.Organized for now - but as I make moves to scale a bit I probably could use a CPA who knows real estate finance.Respectfully

My experience was excellent both projects were completed successfully, on time, and delivered solid returns.

Milwaukee is an excellent market to get started in also. 

Find one that can be custom to your needs, has flexible pricing, no long-term, high-cost memberships, and excellent customer services to determine how to best market to your leads.

If you need a referral to an excellent agent who works exclusively with STRs in that specific market, I can refer ours  I'm an agent, but yes I am in contact w/ one out there familiar w/ STRs. thanks for asking. 

@Rene HosmanIf it’s too much to do in excel I have a bookkeeper handle it - now there are overseas companies that can be very cost effective as well.

From the hotel side I know they have generally had excellent reviews, but from the condo owners, I'm not sure.
