Investment Prop with low ARV
Hi everyone. I'm new to investing. I want to purchase a property in an area that is at the beginning stages of gentrification. Right now the ARV of the property would not be comparable to the repairs needed. Would you still purchase and renovate the property knowing the value would increase over years vs immediately?
