C Type Property For First Time Investor
I’m a new investor, determined to buy my first rental property and start my journey to exit the rat race..I found a great turn key SF home, with good Coc in a C type neighborhood (Crime rate is relatively high). Would you recommend a C type investment for a first time investor. Any advice would be greatly appreciated !!

High crime isn't C class, it's D class to most people.
avoid.
High crime is usually the last dividing line between C and D for people who specialize in C-class investing.
