Ways to determine neighborhood class, remotely

[Harsh Patel]

I asked this question in a separate post, but figured that would be not relevant to the original question, hence reposting here - 

What are some of the methods to determine a neighborhood class (A, B, etc)? Especially for someone trying to invest out of state? Are there any good tools that would help?

Harsh Patel something I like to do is go to the tax accessors website and look at the owners of propeties near mine. If you’re seeing a lot of LLCs or other entities those are rentals, same with distant owners.

From there if it’s mostly LLCs and distant owners you know it’s likely a C neighborhood. If it’s 50-66 percent or so of both that’s B, and if it’s almost all owner occupied that’s likely A.

Also look at school ratings, and trucks crime map.
