Best neighborhoods to buy 300k rental near Gilbert or Mesa AZ

[Terry Fox]

Hi All,

I’ll be selling a property in Connecticut and looking to invest the proceeds in a rental property in Arizona. I’ll be looking in the $285k - $310k range. I’m thinking on the east side of Phoenix around Mesa/ Gilbert. Anyone have a favorite neighborhood to invest in?

I’m used to investing in single family houses but would entertain other options if the market dictates it.
