Thoughts on Milwaukee 53215?

[Melissa Roybal]

Hi everyone!

I live in California, and have been listening to the podcasts and absorbing every bit of education I can for the past few months and finally pulled the trigger last night and made an offer on a triplex in Milwaukee.  The offer hasn't been accepted yet and it looks like we are up against two other offers.  I am getting a bit nervous.  We have a realtor and potential property manager there.  The cashflow looks great and so does the cash on cash return.  I am a bit nervous about the neighborhood, though.  We have tried to do as much research as we can, but it looks like a lot of the areas with high cashflow have a lot of crime.  I realize a lot of time neighborhoods within a zip code can vary greatly, even block by block.  Can anyone shed any light on the area around south 19th Street and West Lincoln?  Thanks BP!
