Hey Rob,

Definitely appreciate all the information. I am sure I will have more questions as we move along with the process.

If you wouldn't mind PM'ing me your agents name I'd appreciate it. Also, saw you're a FF'er, wife is a medic for Tri-Lakes FPD. Thanks for all the info.

Jason,

Thanks for the reply. So from what I understand the East side of Pueblo is a bit rougher? As far as new investor is their anything that can be done to minimize risk with tenants? Property management or not? What prices are you buying your rentals at and what are you getting monthly from them? Any leads on agents in the area?

Thanks a ton for the help, we really appreciate it.

Jeremy,

I appreciate the reply as well as the information. I have gone through a few BiggerPockets threads and seen a few people talking about staying clear of Pueblo but I didn't get a reason why. From reading through the forums it seems like a ton of people are doing business in low income, high poverty areas in the midwest and having great success so I guess my question would be. What would make Pueblo different? 

Hello,

My name is Matt. My wife and I want to get started in real estate and are looking at a buy and hold strategy in the Pueblo area. The obvious attraction is the home prices down there compared to the rest of the state. My wife and I's biggest concern is buying in such a lower income area and are curious of peoples experience with low income tenants. Damage, theft, evictions? If anyone could weigh in we would love the feedback. 

Thanks a ton!
