Neighborhoods in Pittsburgh

[Liron Burrack]

Hey Everyone,

I am an out-of-state investor who is looking to invest in Pittsburgh.

I looked at a lot of neighborhoods in the Pittsburgh triangle area and outside, but It is hard for me to decide which neighborhoods to focus on.

What I am looking for:

1. a mix of appreciation and cash flow

2. SFH or multi-unit (up to 4 units) properties.

3. I'm open to different types of income/population (low income, students, etc)

4. I'm looking to buy and hold for ~10 years.

I trying to decide on 2 Neighborhoods to focus on.

One of the neighborhoods I'm curious about is Larimer because of its closeness to Bakery Square and also seems like there are plans to improve the neighborhood.

I have a few questions about this neighborhood, that can help me decide:

1. What are the better and worse streets in the neighborhood?

2. Would anyone that is not under section 8 agree to rent there at the moment?

3. Any recommendation for a property management company that is working in that area? To help me get a better understanding of the rent situation there

Also, curious to hear opinions about Garfield, and the Hill District.

Thanks to anyone who can help
