If you were very Risk Tolerant where would you invest?

[Account Closed]

Hello All!

My name is Tyrone and I'm a Delaware investor. I have two houses in a "not-so-great" area and would love some input on where I could look for deals. I don't mind taking risky investments (Currently have 2 houses in Wilmington) and actually prefer places other people deem too dangerous to invest.

So far I  have Loch Raven village, Hillandale, Parkville, Northwood etc.. But I wanted to know more about the properties in Baltimore city. Anyone else invests this way and could give some pointers? I would also love to chat with anyone about Wilmington as well.

Thank You!

David, why would you assume a voucher tenant would be any more likely to smoke weed than a non-voucher tenant?

I'm still trying to restore my relationship with the other condo owners in the building.  

 Susan, why would you be surprised that someone on a voucher program would smoke weed in your condo? 

Actually that's an interesting topic. All stereotypes aside, I'd be curious to see the numbers on weed smoking re: voucher vs. non-voucher. Might be correlated with disposable income. Lots of weed smoking going on in Canton and Fed Hill, and not many complaints about it. 

And if I read this thread correctly, it was actually the sublet tenant that smoked the weed, not the voucher tenant. :)  Seems like Ruth's main complaint about her voucher tenant was that the lady was a bad neighbor.
