Greater Cleveland is still the best. Some Cleveland Proper Laws are a bit silly, but they can be overcome. Cashflow, appreciation, and opportunity. Come to my hometown.

Quote from @Simon Powe:

Sounds like my candidate.

Let me know how to support as an out of state landlord.

We had tremendous support for Cheryl at the first event, raising over $13,000 from 40 people. 

Come to the Follow-up event or donate to the campaign.

We can do this.

For all Greater Cleveland Investors, This is our Champion!

Everyone of us has a story of injustice in the Cleveland Housing Court. But we have an opportunity to make things right 

The current judge is up for reelection in Nov 2025.  Re-election would mean 6 more years of housing court abuse that we as investors cannot afford. From eviction foolishness to overreach on housing violations, the current housing court judge is making a mockery of my Hometown.

Instead we can support a new judge, Cheryl Wiltshire, who will rebuild housing court. With Bipartisan support, Cheryl has shown the competence, integrity, and fairness we need in a judge. 

I invite you to join this fundraiser. Come meet the future Judge, your industry colleagues, and me at this event. 

Don't let your investments falter. You can make a difference.

Thanks for asking, Simon. I can give specifics 

1. She will not require rental registrations as part of the eviction process, this  reduced paperwork. You still need to get your registration, but it won't prevent you from controlling your property and getting the eviction if city hall loses the paperwork PLease review my post on the process just to get one:

2. She's also preparing plans to reduce eviction court waiting times, having Right to council screening ahead of time, and encouraging Mediation before the Court date, not during. 

3. When Chasing Tenants for damages she won't require Both estimates and paid invoices, only estimates. Her Magistrates wouldn't fight tooth and nail  

4. She won't prevent the sale/transfer of properties with violations. 

Basically, she'll bring things into accordance with Ohio law.  These policies benefit landlords and tenants alike.

From an american perspective
1. Not sure on this one. Could just be his way of making sure you don't ditch him as soon as he does the job. Most of the PM work is done on the first 3 months of the management, then we can recoup our expenses.
2. this Is legally required. Property managers cannot touch your money, It has to go into a separate account managed by the broker. You can't commingle funds.
3. I do the same thing. If it's beyond the regular duties, then yeah, a fee for his time is valid. Make sure you get his idea of what situations could require a fee.

Sahar, I work closely with a number of investor focused realtors. send me a dm and i'll send you a list.

@Joshua Perelli so only a crazy person would accept being a LAIC for an owner self managing. The amount of liability they would take on is insane. Housing violations, lead remediations, FHA lawsuits, Personal Injury

Even property managers shouldn't do it. But at least they have some control and understanding of the property. 

My work around was to find a 75 year old dude with no credit and no assets, who wanted a new truck.
