Advice on neighborhoods in Richmond

[Scott Berman]

Hi there,

I am looking into buying my first property just north of Richmond in North Highland Park.  I was wondering if anyone knows about the area.  I've read some articles that its sort of up and coming or gentrifying and that it might be a good place to get some value.  I would be purchasing a 3 or 4 bedroom home for around $100,000 and renting it out for a few years.  I really just need to know about the neighborhood around there as I know very little about the area.  Thanks!
