And in Cleveland, I understand as a Landlord you need to be aware of Judge - who really likes tenants and really hates landlords (but that is a rumor I have hear about)

Welcome to the BP  community Beau.

I've made the decision to move ahead and really start developing a business plan/strategy and to begin engaging with the BiggerPockets community and my local REI community.

hey lincoln, While seller financing is a strategy since it is owned outright, I am not fully aware of the details to determine if it really makes all that much sense with this particular property.

I have a duplex in San Jose, recently we rebuilt a 2 car garage in the old garage base which I was not aware a permit is needed.

Hi BP Community!

I find that its important to be aware of all types of "deals" so that you don't pass up on a property because you are unaware that a property matches something outside of say wholesaling.

I assume you are aware of the FHA requirement to owner occupy for 1 year
