Hi Andy,

I am an investor from Cleveland, who now lives in California.   There are varying opinions on where Cleveland development is heading.   My opinion would be too long for a post reply so I will spare you.  I will say I am happy about my decision to invest there, but would caution those from out of state to really study the area before diving in.   To a Californian all the architecture looks the same and everything looks relatively cheap.  But there is a fine line between stable, blue collar cheap, and war zone cheap.   I can recommend the Holton-Wise Property Group for guidance on the west side.    @James Wise  has a great primer for a lay of the land.  Check out his "The Ultimate Guide to Grading Cleveland Neighborhoods" post in the forum.

86K for a Fourplex is definitely a D area.  @James Wise has a great post with a graded map of Cleveland.  Check out "The Ultimate Guide to Grading Cleveland Neighborhoods".

I'm in, if and when it happens.

Hi,

I am a new investor looking for investor friendly realtors in the Palmdale, CA area. Anybody have any recommendations? I have enjoyed reading the posts here at Bigger Pockets and figured this is the best place to start looking.

Thanks!

John
