Brett Young September 02, 2026

This is another great example of keeping income real estate simple: set realistic expectations, do the work, and deliver the results.

At 13117 Wilton in Cleveland, Ohio, we updated the property and added an additional bathroom to help improve both the rental appeal and long-term value.

Before the project was completed, we projected the property would rent for $1,650 per month.

That is exactly what we achieved: $1,650 per month.

The Income Numbers

Monthly Rent: $1,650
Property Taxes: $179
Insurance: $60
Property Management: $125

Estimated Net Income: $1,286 per month
Estimated Annual Net Income: $15,432

These numbers are before other potential ownership expenses such as maintenance, vacancy, capital expenditures, financing, and income taxes.

Property Updates

We completed several improvements to help make this property attractive to tenants and position it for long-term income production, including:

New flooring
Additional/new bathroom
New interior paint
New exterior paint
Additional repairs and improvements as needed

Just as important, we gave our client a reasonable quote for the work—and we stayed with the quote.

The goal wasn't to over-improve the property or spend unnecessary money. The goal was to make smart improvements that support rental income, tenant demand, and the property's overall value.
