Hi everyone! I'm looking to invest in St. Louis (but I'm out of state). I have my eye on a few properties but wanted some insight into the neighborhoods. How safe/what grade would you assign to Academy, Kingsway West, and the surrounding neighborhoods? Or for the more seasoned investors, how do you go about evaluating neighborhoods while out of state?

@Joseph Rice Thanks! I was thinking Racine because it has potential to draw people moving from Chicago as well as Milwaukee. What benefits do you think the Sheboygan market has over Racine?

I'm a young, new real estate investor and the area I live in is too expensive for me to start purchasing rental properties locally. I've done some market research and landed on Racine as a great area to start my first BRRR. Since this is out of state for me, I'm looking to get in touch with an entire team out in Racine. Does anyone know property managers, real estate agents, and/or contractors in Racine who would be willing to chat?

Thanks everyone! (Also, I'm new to Bigger Pockets forums so please let me know if this post is more appropriate elsewhere)
