New to real estate investing in Cleveland Ohio area.

[Lauren Koon]

Hi everyone. 
I am very new to real estate! I purchased my first home earlier this year. A single family home in Parma Heights. I want to get into investing in real estate properties. I believe this home I am occupying currently would be a good candidate for a rental property but I would like to learn more about how you find out which cities are the best to invest in rental properties. I am a dental hygienist so I do not have the most knowledge in real estate yet! I have heard Parma is a decent area to invest in? Any opinions or suggestions on different areas to look in to? Thanks!

Parma Heights and even Parma are fine areas to invest in.  There is a consistent renter base there and as long as you buy at the right price you can make a good return.  There are other worthwhile suburbs to buy in, it will depending on if you plan to self manage or hire a manager.  If you self manage you'll want something closer to home to reduce commute time, if you hire a manager then you can pick from any city without additional headache.
