That's not an impressive statistic for realtors and their sales skills.

In fact, I did some research that of course is NOT a statistically verifiable example, and found that in the few instances I researched the wholesalers claiming huge earnings were LYING THROUGH THEIR TEETH.

I'm no expert on either area and have relied heavily on realtors and property managers from the area for input regarding neighborhoods in addition to other statistical data.  

lol yea it's pretty insane how people just throw statistics and data out the window and make these kinds of comments.... 

"There are old pilots, there are bold pilots, but there are no old, bold pilots."

It sure does.The source of this data is the Center for Disease Control and Prevention; National Center for Health Statistics.

@Tonye Jack One thing to consider is the Columbus, as a city is roughly 3x the size of Cleveland, so they really are not even in the same category....they are, however, similar sized metro statistical (MSA) areas of 2 million or so...that means there is a lot of opportunity in either MSA...you just have to find it.

There are solid C neighborhoods that will fit your criteria and budget, and some B neighborhoods as well.A good tool that I personally use is www.niche.com to look up market statistics.
