I've just watched the "gator method" today.

You should setup multiple ways to accept payment.Our tenants have the following methods to remit rent (no cash) -1) Online payment sysem2) Zelle3) Bank deposit at Bank of America.4) Come to the office to remit funds.

You want to focus on areas where you have a competitive advantage (you have lived there or you have family and friends there) and then compare those areas against widespread list of great areas to invest.Good luck!

Yes, the BRRRR method can work with multifamily properties, and many investors have done it successfully.

My primary focus is on the BRRR method, with a greater emphasis on appreciation over cash flow.For those with experience investing in Cleveland, I’d greatly appreciate any insights on neighborhoods worth focusing on.

For all methods you would want to find a market that has strong employment rates, strong income rates for the market, and is a growing or an established market. 

What is your preferred method of contact and when is a good time? 

As a general contractor, i feel best suited for fix and flip or BRRR method investing.

@Anthony KolbuszBRRRR method is a fantastic strategy, especially with your trade experience.

I do not have to much cash for a down payment but was thinking of doing a HELOC on one of the rentals to get more cash and go the BRRRR method.
