Buy & Hold Investment Benchmarks

Hey! 

Obviously, every investor has different benchmarks...

But if YOU are looking at investing in a buy and hold, what are your minimums/maximums that you want to see for the following benchmarks...


- Maximum Crime Rate Of The Community

- Minimum Population Of The Community 

- Minimum Average Income Of The Community 

- Maximum Rate Of Poverty In The Community

- Minimum Renter To Owner Ratio In The Community

- Maximum Vacancy Rate Of The Community 

- Maximum Unemployment Rate Of The Community 

- Minimum Percentage Of Post-Secondary Graduates Of The Community

Now I know not everyone will use every single one of these statistics, but if you use any of these statistics, what are the minimums/maximums a community needs to have for you to consider investing in a buy & hold opportunity there?

Cheers! Excited to see your input.
