Hi BiggerPockets community,

My name is Lidor, and I’m a real estate investor from Israel.
I’m currently starting to invest in the Cleveland, OH market, with a focus on fix & flip projects.

I’m looking to connect with experienced real estate agents who actively work with investors and have access to off-market opportunities and wholesale deals.

If you’re an agent based in the Cleveland area and experienced with flips, feel free to send me a message and we can set up a call to get to know each other.

Referrals and recommendations are highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

    Hey Lidor! Welcome to BP. Cleveland can work well for flips if you’re disciplined on price and contractor oversight.

    If you’re coming in from out of state, I’d focus heavily on ZIP-level comps, DOM trends, and rent-to-price ratios before relying on “off-market” promises. A lot of wholesalers there push thin margins.

    Are you targeting specific neighborhoods yet, or still evaluating pockets?

    Hey, thanks — I really appreciate the insight.

    You’re absolutely right. I’m approaching Cleveland very carefully, especially with purchase price discipline and contractor oversight. Being out of state, I’m spending a lot of time analyzing ZIP-level comps, DOM trends, and exit pricing before relying on off-market opportunities.

    At this stage, I’m still evaluating neighborhoods and looking for areas that combine good flip potential with manageable risk. Any advice on pockets that consistently perform well for flips would be super helpful.

    @Lidor Levi 

    Appreciate that, you’re thinking about it the right way.

    If you’re still evaluating ZIPs, I’d focus heavily on median purchase price relative to realistic rent potential and exit liquidity. Some Cleveland ZIPs look cheap on paper, but once you factor buyer demand and pricing ceilings, margins compress quickly.

    When I look at Cleveland, I’m comparing ZIP-level median price, cash flow potential, and overall deal score to see where pricing discipline actually holds up.

    Are you leaning more toward lower price-point flips with volume, or higher ARV with tighter inventory?

      I'm leaning toward higher ARV properties but only for small, cosmetic renovations. I'd love to set up a video call to chat and get to know each other better—let me know a time that works for you.

    Hey Lidor, Cleveland, OH is a great market to invest in. I started investing here after moving from Florida for the growing market. I spend all day sourcing deals now.

    Welcome to the market. I’m an active investor and a licensed agent myself, so I underwrite every deal with an investor mindset and only bring opportunities I’d buy myself. I regularly source off-market and wholesale flips through my local boots-on-the-ground team and work not just in the area, but across Ohio, so we can pivot to wherever the best margins are. Happy to connect and see how I can help you land your next flip.
