Cleveland Heights is one of Greater Cleveland's most desirable communities — beautiful tree-lined streets, architecturally rich homes, and a strong mix of homeowners and investors.

Renovating Older Homes in Cleveland Heights
Cleveland Heights homes are largely built between 1910 and 1960 — colonials, tudors, bungalows, and two-family homes with real character and history.
They also come with original knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized plumbing, single-pane windows, and plaster walls. Our team knows how to work with older construction, preserve original character where appropriate, and modernize what needs updating.
Because we're EPA Lead-Safe certified, we handle all pre-1978 renovation work safely and in full compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Cleveland Heights require a Point of Sale inspection?
Yes. Cleveland Heights requires a POS inspection before property transfers. We handle POS violation repairs in Cleveland Heights regularly — call us with your inspection report for a same-day quote.
Is Rent Ready Constructions EPA Lead-Safe certified for Cleveland Heights homes?
Yes. We are EPA Lead-Safe certified, required for renovation work on homes built before 1978. The vast majority of Cleveland Heights homes predate 1978, making this certification essential on almost every project we do in this market.
Cleveland Heights vs Shaker Heights — which is better for investors?
Both markets are strong but serve different strategies. Cleveland Heights offers higher inventory turnover, more affordable acquisition prices, and strong rental demand from university staff and students.
Shaker Heights has larger homes, higher price points, and rewards quality renovation with stronger appreciation. Cleveland Heights is generally better for cash-flow-focused BRRRR investors; Shaker Heights suits value-add investors targeting appreciation. Rent Ready Constructions works extensively in both markets.
What types of homes does Rent Ready Constructions renovate in Cleveland Heights?
We work on all of Cleveland Heights' housing types — brick colonials, Tudor-style homes, craftsman bungalows, two-family homes, and apartment buildings. We're experienced with older construction including plaster walls, original hardwood floors, and pre-modern plumbing and electrical systems.
