Does anyone have any connections in the Cleveland Ohio (specifically around the Cleveland Clinic) area with regards to realtors, contractors and management companies? 

You've already gone above and beyond, but it seems you just dig up more problems.When you run a credit/criminal background, the credit report should list the applicant's current and previous addresses.

This equates to approximately 1.18% to 1.14%, which is still within the typical range.For properties above $35M, the commission is a flat $500,000.

Think AirBNB markets in the mountains.

On the other hand I can't find a thing about Traceestate.com, i cant only find the website.

To do the cash out refi I want(leaving more cash in the deal than taking out) I would only have a $200 increase in the PITI.

Looking to connect with others in the area who are buying long term rental properties.

I’m fairly new to the self-managing/property management business and certainly new to dealing with section 8 tenants.I have a potential section 8 tenant who has inquired about one of my properties and they are in their opinion “disgusted” with the way the carpet looks however up until this point in my efforts of marketing the property I have not had one complaint concerning the carpet.That being said she has requested to rip out the carpet, in turn to replace the carpet with hardwood floors. 

I found it on auction.com and I just bid on it How did you add value to the deal?

Most of the regs prohibit it within the city, so I would check and see if the area you are looking allow it.Your best bet is to look at the markets on VRBO and AirBNB and see what is out there right now.
