Little Rock, AR Attractive Sub Markets

[Blake Wardman]

Hi BP!

I'm a new investor based in Southern CA and I'm looking to start with SFH or small multi-family (2-4 units) properties to hold and rent long term. I've done a fair amount of research and identified Little Rock, AR as a market I want to dive into. I've made connections with a couple buyer's agents and have looked at a few properties as a result, but I want to get more educated on the sub markets I should be targeting. Ideally, I'd like to find something that is in a decent area today (I'm OK with it being a little rough around the edges), but that will find itself in the "path of progress" within the next five years.

Is anyone familiar with the Little Rock area? Any input is much appreciated.

In LR most areas that are within the i630 are Reasonable. Midtown is up and coming already. some parts of the old Quarters is good too. 

Most of the Argenta area of North LR is in the path of progress. 

Sherwood is good mostly C area.. Jacksonville can be patchy down south but the north is C+.
