MA Flippers/Agents: Hampden and South Worcester Counties?

[Taylor Shapiro]

Hi all,

I've started looking into Hampden County and Southern Worcester County for potential rehab projects. I've spoken with a few agents in MA and CT who agree that Springfield might not be the best area to start rehabbing properties from afar, however, towns like Hampden, Chicopee, and Southwick are ideal.

Would any Mass investors or agents mind sharing your thoughts on these areas? Any wholesalers who have properties to sell? I have a team in Northern CT who are ready to take on more projects.

@Taylor Shapiro We are working in Southern Worcester County, in the towns of Auburn, Oxford, Dudley, Charlton, and Sturbridge. While these towns currently have a relatively healthy absorption rate, be weary of towns such as Southbridge, Spencer, and Webster as they are colder markets with a less desirable tenant base.
