Finding the right neighborhood

Greg Hayes
  • Santa Cruz
Posted

Hello everyone, my name is Greg and I'm brand new to the forum and to Bigger Pockets.  I want to get into real estate investing, however, my market here in Santa Cruz CA is out of the question.  So I am planning on being an Out of State Investor.  Right now the problem Im coming up against is that I don't know if the neighborhoods Im looking in are any good, a.k.a. are they A,B,C or D neighborhoods.  What are some strategies or tools that others are using, as out of state investors, to find this information.  

Thanks,

Greg

    @Greg Hayes

    Out of state us great, lots of opportunity there. But have you looked into areas just outside of Santa Cruz like Felton, Ben Lomond, and Boulder Creek? Lots of opportunity depending on what you are looking for.

    What are you looking for?
