all of the things your talking about are readily available to you with simple google searches etc.PS BP has work shops that cost some money I have not been but I suspect those would be well worth the money..

I am familiar with the Philadelphia market and neighborhoods where units trade at or around $115K/door.For this to be a true 10.5-11% cap the monthly income should be ~$10,750.00 or roughly $1,800/unit.

I personally would avoid the older neighborhoods closer to the post.

The best way to find a handyman is to look for business cards at coffee shops and local restaurants.

Some of my clients love the cash flow in the east side neighborhoods over by Slavic Village and Broadway selling between 90-110k with rents up to $1,800+, but just really depends on the types of neighborhoods you're investing in and your risk / reward threshold. 

At the time I looked, 20 or so years ago, the problem with smaller down towns is the proliferation of nearby strip malls, where the stores are surrounded by a large parking lots, and for laundromats, attract more customers as they can park easily, walk to adjacent stores for shopping, snacks, and browse newspaper and magazine racks, which explains why they do better, there's more customers.

At the time there were limited 3 BR rentals in the neighborhood, but achieved such high rental rates the properties ended up performing better as rentals than as a for sale project.

It is close to the downtown area but the majority of area is bigger lots and on the other side of a prominent hill that gives it a more out in the country feelFoothills is the most exclusive areas with higher price points and lots of upper end shopping and diningMarana and Oro Valley are the newer "suburban" areas of Tucson that have the laid back walking and biking paths, golf clubs, snow bird / retiree type activities that draw visitors in and then get hooked and eventually buy homesIf you haven't tried Tucson yet, there is quite the variety and with snowbirds leaving, there are plenty of current STR's ready to host you as the summer warms up. 

Before you make any buys here in Cleveland, make sure you read The Ultimate Guide to Grading Cleveland Neighborhoods.
