Even though everything’s new and should be low-maintenance for a while, someone will eventually clog a drain, break something, or have an A/C issue.

The other, is a two-family home that I am house hacking at the moment, with the intent of fixing it up & eventually moving on and placing a tenant in the unit I currently live in. 

Since we want to be conservative with our underwriting, we found the county’s Property Tax Estimator tool: https://cuyahogacounty.gov/fiscal-officer/departments/budget...Our current thought process:-Look up the correct tax district and current value from county records-Enter the property’s purchase price as the new market value in the estimator-Use the 2026 estimated tax amount for deal analysis, since that’s likely closer to where taxes will eventually adjustFor those of you investing in Cleveland:-Does this approach make sense?

I'll probably by a fourplex next but eventually I want to get into commercial. its a house hack but I plan on staying into it until I reach 20%  Ltv to loan I only put 5% down. 

My plan is to run some wholesale and fix/flips to begin and eventually open my own shop and hire some additional agents at that point, but that's still a few years out. 

My goal is to build long-term wealth and eventually reach around $9,000/month in profit through real estate.Originally, I was really interested in multifamily investing and house hacking as a starting strategy, but with a family of four, I’m realizing that house hacking might not be the most practical option for us right now.

I think that's a great way to go about your goals; by getting some experience through a few deals and then eventually getting involved into larger ventures like mobile home parks.

We are fresh into learning about investment properties with an eventual goal of rentals.

There is info available on that.So, the initial numbers look something like this: $235,000 ARV, Here is a house for our exampleIt usually takes a beginner 6 months from buying the house, rehabbing, and then selling & closing, to getting your money.SELL: It assumes you are putting 20% down on a purchase price that is 65% of what you will eventually sell it for, with a Net Profit of $22,981 if you flip & sellRENT: Your monthly mortgage cost is $1,302 and Rentometer says it should rent for $1,500 - a $200 a month difference.
