Rochester NY real estate

[Richard Whitaker]

I’m thinking about purchasing a rental  property in the group 14621 area but having 2nd thought bcuz i think it might be a D class area not a C class... thoughts?

The 14621 area has both C and D Class properties. It changes street by street, and a bit over time, depending on the neighborhood and location. This area is not for the faint of heart. There historically has been poor upkeep on these properties and most of them are quite old, near 100 years or more. There is a lot of maintenance costs associated with this old of a house, especially if it hasn't been changed to PEX plumbing and block windows for the basement yet. This neighborhood is notorious for being broken into and having the copper cut out and stolen. 

As they always say, its cheap for a reason. Don't mean to scare you, but wanted to assure you of the truth from a local.
