Poor area investments

[Evan Parker]

I have a question for those of you who have experience investing in a poor area of town. 

I found what I feel to be an amazing deal on a multi family property that would give great returns, however, it's in a poorer area where there are abandoned buildings scattered around and very poor quality housing all throughout its immediate surroundings. 

Any experience in this kind of market in terms of success of your actual investment? Any suggestions?
