@Lance Johnson I don't have any business in Akron but even quick search of MLS shows that there is couple duplexes listed in 44303: one for sale for $39,900 and 2bed/1bath is rented for $300 and $200.First of all, even with 4 rentals on your property - it's very low income, so it will be tough management.Another duplex updated for $69,900 doesn't even state the rent.
