It is a low entry barrier way to get into real estate.

Where to find data of positively appreciating markets?

Word documents work but when are you doing an long application, they are always space constrained and can’t have conditional entries. 

You can avoid massive headaches and costly mistakes through some of the advice and experience on here, there’s plenty of pitfalls we made that you can avoid by reading and asking questions.Cleveland is one of the best turnkey market and the most popular for investors because of high rental demand and low cost of entry, property prices are pretty inexpensive here.

Should we offer $450K and break-even on entry?

My confidence of easily renting it out at the end of expiry at the current entry price to maintain the same NOI is not high should tenant not renew. 

All parties have 72 hours to submit data to the appraiser to challenge. 

They were my entry strategy into real estate, and in my experience one of the best strategies for most new investors.

This means that wall street REALLY doesn't want to buy mortgage backed securities with loans at X.500% in them, they'd rather have X.625% or X.375% (people buy/refi/etc based on emotion not math, Wall St has data saying that X.500% people refinance really quick, one would assume).
