I did my first one with the help of my buyers agent, the title company who supplied the promissory note for free, and a few hundred bucks for my lawyer to review the docs prior to closing.

@Matheus SouzaInvesting in out-of-state markets like Cleveland and Columbus can offer accessible entry points for first-time investors seeking multifamily properties with your budget constraints.Insights on Cleveland: The multifamily market in Cleveland is showing signs of stabilization in 2025, with rebounding demand following a period of supply adjustments.

@Matthew HollandsworrhYou’re definitely on the right track by targeting Northeast OH — lots of investors operate there and good contractors are always in short supply.

The supply chain will need a decade to find new sourcing.  

I will supply the air filters, can I put clause in to make sure the air filter is chaged once a month?

Right now, the market has slowed a bit but there is still not enough supply (and most of it not that great) so I am sure yours will stand out from a "feel" perspective when a potential buyer walks the property. 

That improves the block, raises tax revenue, reduces blight, and gives buyers move-in-ready options.If investors stopped buying distressed houses tomorrow, you’d see:• fewer renovated homes• more unsafe/dated properties sitting vacant• lower neighborhood appeal• and fewer entry-level houses anyone actually wantsThat doesn’t help affordability, it hurts it.The real driver of rising prices is supply versus demand, not whether an investor bought the house first.

.- My guess is they have enough funding sources and track record to be competitive in the marketplace, but ultimately supply and demand will dictate what they can offer

For consumers, the affordability benefit is modest—monthly payments drop slightly, but total interest nearly doubles, slowing equity growth and potentially inflating housing prices without addressing supply constraints.

They were Class C and D, which take a LOT of time to stay on top the tenants.Padsplit does this, but only with Class A properties & corresponding tenants.Also, be aware YOU will have to supply kitchen, living room, laundry and other common area furniture and such.
