@Trevor McCormick,Is there a specific reason to only look at a single market. 

You need to provide a bit more specifics about the property, about the insights you want, etc.  

If there's any specific concerns I could address I would be happy to. 

3) Any specific states you recommend to set up any of these (Not sure where I'll be purchasing property yet, maybe Detroit, maybe Cleavland, maybe Augusta, maybe Des Moines, maybe Saint Cloud, maybe Memphis...)4) I already have a LLC based in Hong Kong (We call them limited companies, but the principle is the same).

This sort of thing is market specific.

I don't know anything specific about the Cincy market (and what the type of neighborhood this one is in - (A, B, C, etc.), but I've been told it's very similar to where I live in St.

So to answer the question specifically no I would not buy a property that did not cash flow and only for tax basis.

If anyone who professes to teach you something about real estate cannot or will not identify 10-20 specific, verifiable addresses they currently own and rent out, or have flipped, or optioned away or syndicated or whatever, they do not deserve any of your money. 

We're often helping each other problem solve our listings or helping with specific situations that are occurring at our properties.
