Hi Mariana,It is defiantly doable to find a 2 Family home under 235k and less than 9k in taxes in CT, just depends on the market.

Everyone can't self manage for any number of reasons - while others may be able to do that it's just not doable for all.

I make sure to get them things that only fit their specific (doable) criteria.

I'd actually say there are three Franklintons: (1) East of 315, where only big companies or very lucky small/individual property owners play; (2) West of 315 to Glenwood / the RR tracks, where flipping is more doable despite the pending departure of most of the hospital; (3) West of Yale / the RR tracks to I-70, where rentals are the norm.

Moral of the story, don't buy D grade junkers.Cleveland's got many great neighborhoods to buy in, great returns, 15% return in a solid C market is do-able with some elbow grease, but don't expect 15% returns turnkey or tenant ready on the MLS in today's.

It's definitely doable!

Doable, but you will need to be active, not totally passive.

Get caught up in the CRE world, it's very different and definitely doable but you'll need more capital. 

Simple, doable.

Finding the right property is critical in these competitive markets.As for BRRRing short-term rentals, it's doable but demands careful planning.
