Albany Capital Region for buy and hold

[Peter Stellato]

Hey all,

My partner and I are heading to Albany this week to look at some potential properties.  We are looking all around the capital region and upstate New York for investment properties.  I am somewhat familiar with Albany and my partner is a little more familiar than me.  I know there are some rough areas and we are looking for multi-families to rent to workers in the various institutions in the area (medical center, university, etc.).  Anything we should know about the city before we visit?
