Kenosha WI Buying Properties

Hey BP:

I am a beginner real estate investor who owns 1 property in North Eastern IL.  I'm looking at some other properties in Kenosha WI 53140 53141 53142 53143 53144, which is also close to my area.  I'm less familiar with that area, but I am getting the general sense that a more desirable location to live is typically east of route 32?  Hoping there are some other local investors that could provide some insights, as some of the properties I am looking at are a few blocks west of that location.

Thanks!

    @Drew Gedemer hi there I am a local investor and born, raised and living in Kenosha, I also worked in social work so I am very familiar with the ins and outs of Kenosha. The section listed earlier north and south 45th-67th street and east of 22nd ave is the area generally considered the “not great part of town” now there is opportunity and even within that zone the main area I personally avoid is 57th-63rd st & 12th-22nd ave ... usually around the fringes you can be ok depending on the type of property your looking for can be a solid C class rental if managed right.

    Happy to answer any questions
