Jordan, Fresno market in my opinion is a great blend of affordable with opportunity still for appreciation and cash flow.

I imagine that it cash flows. 

Cleaned up property, replaced flooring, renovated bathrooms and kitchen.

After my preliminary research, there are still two questions I was still curious about regarding a condo I wanted to rent out in the future.1) What can I do to ensure I do not end up spending a crazy amount of my cash flow on random maintenance costs such as special HOA assessments.2) How can I make sure to obtain tenants for my property ASAP so I do not have a single month without earning rent.Thank you so much!

I would definitely do your homework on if Cleveland is a popular spot for traveling nurses, but your head is in the right place as your cash flow will certainly be greater than it would as an LTR!

There is even a profession, "data scraping and cleaning", usually programmers do it.For example, it's impossible to manually compile "Top 50 CRM for REI".

Grab that equity and get as many cash flowing SFR with 20% down as you can.

Is cash flow really good or is it too much headache?

I fear investors can become fixated on market cap rates but there are so many factors that go into both high and low ends of the spectrum.High cap rates can generally yield better cash flow opportunities considering you are purchasing at a low price to NOI ratio but may be an indicator of a dwindling market considering valuations are staunched.Lower cap rates can generally yield better appreciation considering a small NOI increase can shoot values up further than that same increase in a high cap rate market. 

Otherwise, if they seem clean and have no violations then give them a lecture on how they need to communicate better with you.
