St. Louis Multi family

[Andrew Pappas]

I'm investing out of state in St Louis, and have built a decent team over the past year with another property I own, but still want to screen what they're sending me.  Does anyone know if Bridgeton in the northwest metro area is decent?  I know the tenant pool for a multi may be middle to low income, I'm just looking for decent areas/not war zones.  Also, can anyone recommend a handyman or contractor for that area?

Bridgeton is a nice area. I live in a neighboring city. It is near airport and Boeing (jobs). The only thing I would worry about is the Bridgeton landfill. It contains illegally dumped radioactive waste but they are working on extracting it soon. You can google for location. I’m not too worried about it...otherwise i wouldn’t live where I do. Just make sure you don’t buy something backing up to it.
