Classic West Cleveland duplexes with 2 bed 1 bath up and down exist in Kamm's/Westpark, West Cleveland, Old Brooklyn, Parma, Lakewood, Edgewater, Ohio City, at various price points, with Lakewood, Edgewater and Ohio City being pricier.

Strive to get at least 3 comps within a half mile radius, same number of bed/bath, +/- 10% of sq ft, same style, amenities, etc.

I am a Pennsylvania (Philadelphia and surrounding area) investor and just made my first venture into Texas in the 76131 zip with 4 bed 2 bath SFH.

This would be my first out of state property and I want to know if others think this is a deal worth doing or not. 3 bed 2 bath home in Ohio.The purchase price would be $167,000.

I obviously keep the grass well maintained and sidewalks clean but would some mulch and flowers beds be worth it or just another thing to maintain and not worth my time?

I am interested in the idea of rent by the room with a 4-5 bed house.

We updated all units, and added one more bed and bath to achieve highest rent value, successfully converting this asset into a class A triplex producing an 8% annual cash-on-cash return and a 42% total annual return.

I came across a great property; it's a 5 bed SFH, but the basement is a 2 bed 1 bath MIL apartment.
