I think the high taxes are a trade off for the value the properties retain (since they are next to Cleveland), and there are great schools around that attract quality tenants.So would you rather pay higher taxes and rent to families and possibly increase occupancy % and have an added exit strategy in the future of being able to sell the property to someone for financing (it won't drop below 50k), or save on taxes and deal with those other issues.I think the biggest issues to deal with is the knob and tube wiring and lead paint.I have great connections for the mechanicals (roofing, electrician, plumbing, and carpentry).

The thing that concerns me about a Land Contract, is that the seller retains the Title, until the property is paid off.
