Investing at prime area vs investing at less developed area.

Hi all.

I am from Boston and am trying to find out properties for investment.

So far, at Back bay, the cap rate is very low, but if I go to Dorchester or any other suburb places, the cap rate is higher.

I know the pros and cons, and the reasons why the cap rate at suburb area is higher.

However, I cannot put all "pros and cons" to the value that I can't determine where to purchase investment properties.

Any tips given well be welcome.

My investors are foreigners so anyone who is expert at this is also welcome to pm me.

Regards.
