On today's episode, Mike and Brook Reilly check the temperature on
the Cleveland real estate market in the early part of 2025.
We are still in a sellers market but it's about 60/40.
Inventory is still low but you also can't go too crazy with pricing really high.
If you're an out of state investor the name of the game is ROI.
Don't buy with your emotions and KNOW. YOUR. NUMBERS.
00:53 Brook shares insights on the Cleveland real estate market, noting that while it’s not as hot as previous years, well-priced homes are still selling quickly, making it a 60/40 seller’s market.
3:15 Mike warns about "cart before the horse" investors who buy properties without understanding the costs, later realizing they need a property manager and major repairs, often leading to financial strain.
8:48 Mike emphasizes realistic return expectations, explaining that many investors believe they’ll make 15% profits, but a more reasonable range is 8-12% due to maintenance costs and capital improvements.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
