Garfield Park Investing
Hi everyone!
I've been looking around Garfield Park and I think I might be seeing some potential. There are plenty 2-4 unit buildings w/ super low prices but are in dire need of rehab (of course).
Being that the area is very close to downtown and boasts the Garfield Park Conservatory, I have (a little) hope that the area will change for the better.
On the other hand, I think it could take generations for that area to truly transform.
What are your thoughts on rehab projects in this area? Is it too early to get involved?
Would love to hear your thoughts!

If you really want to be there, buy and rent to the current demographic. As things change, invest in your remodel.
