Finding A Neighborhood's history and future plans

[Alisha Decoteau]

Hi BP family,

I'm on the hunt to research the 5 best neighborhoods to target the as a new REI but hit a wall.

1. How do I know if a neighborhood was a hot area that is now dying down? Our if the neighborhood was ever considered a hot area.
2. Where would I go to find out if there was major zoning changes in the area ?
3. Is the area about to go through significant zoning changes, such as a new development or a large revitalization project?

Any experienced feed back will be helpful, Thanks
