My first property was chaotic with tenant troubles, so Ohio being a landlord-friendly state and Parma Heights being A-class location, I'm eager to get involved and experience the difference.

@Mayank JainDo you have a W2 job or do you own a business that is not involved in real estate?

Governmental agencies do get involved, often very late in the game and often just having the guru agree to a “cease and desist” order

I've done (and others have too) seller financing where little or no cash is involved at closing.

Also the contractor selection will be key.Everything involved in historic renovation comes down to experience and communication. 

Real estate investment involves having money to make money.

Per this NY Times article, the average American knows around 600 people.https://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/19/science/the-average-american-knows-how-many-people.html#:~:text=The%20average%20American%20knows%20about,do%20you%20know%20named%20Kevin%3FPer the US Census Bureau, the average American moves 11.7 time in their life, which based upon an approximate lifespan of 84 years, works out to be about every 7 years.https://www.census.gov/topics/population/migration/guidance/calculating-migration-expectancy.html#:~:text=Using%202007%20ACS%20data%2C%20it,one%20move%20per%20single%20yearSo, if the average American knows 600 people and they each move about every 7 years, that means that the average American knows around 85 people that move in any given year.How many of those moves do you want to be involved in?
