Criteria for Cincinnati Ohio
This question is for both flippers and buy and hold investors:
-What are your top 5 neighborhoods you prefer to buy in and why do you prefer those neighborhoods?
-What are the top 5 neighborhoods you AVOID buying in and why?

I am currently in College Hill, Pleasent Run, and Colerain with buy and holds. It's interesting to me to see @Joseph Cornwell and @Slocomb Reed avoiding Cincinnati Public by as a blanket statement. To me, that knocks out a lot of good areas where rentals are strong and there is decent money to be made.
We have done one flip in Mason and it was a success.
I have lived in Cincinnati my entire life and there are some places that are a little rougher than others. But as with anything, with proper management and teams in place, you can really buy anywhere for the right price.
