I'm tired of the investors who don't care...

Hi Everyone! 

I get it. Birmingham is a great place to invest in and you get your ROI. However, recently I started noticing that in the Eastern Birmingham area, most homes, acquired by Out of State Investors (California, vegas, etc) are just left to Rot. I mean, dilapidated homes, burned homes, grass not cut, etc.

When did this become OK? I've given several investors the info to people I know in Birmingham that offers property maintenance and other services. Heck, I even started doing Boots on the Ground for others. 

So basically, the homes near my rental properties I started taking care of the lawns (for no pay), because Birmingham City won't cut them most of the time. Then, I started seeking out to GET the properties. Yes, with limited funding, my goal is to buy up my entire neighborhood. 


It's just annoying. At least take care of our CITY if you're going to invest in it. 


I hope I don't get blocked for this lol. I'm just frustrated.
