Advice on a St. Louis 4 family under contract
St. Louis investors,
I've got a 4-family property under contract in University City area of St. Louis, MO. I'm targeting C class areas, and wanted to get the opinion of some local BP investors on the area. My realtor, 2 property managers, and 2 contractors all told me it's a decent area (not the most desirable but not a war zone). All the criminal activity in that neighborhood in the past 6 months consisted of larceny/burglary, with most of it not being on Ursula Avenue. No violent crime. The address is 1118 Ursula Avenue, University City, MO 63130. I got some good video from my realtor, and the area looks clean and decent. Am I accurate on this being a C class area? Thanks for your input.

Just had another idea. Check out the airbnb listings nearby. There are some within a few blocks and they all have good reviews. The reviewers dont mention anything about it being a bad area.
