It's block by block in many Midwest cities: Detroit, Cleveland etc.

However, the property in question is in a pretty good location: adjacent to a garden run by the city council, less than a block from a brand new park, and kiddie corner to a church/Catholic school.

Having lived in many different states and cities, there are few places I have seen where you can have a really great area and go a few blocks and be in a bad area. 

Then, block out all the noise and BS that is Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and god help us, TikTok. 

Insurance has been a pain lately.Our last company claimed we had peeling paint at our stained cabin.

And then dealing with the 20% of residents who cause 80% of your time to be used - what a pain.

A smaller house on the same block sold as a STR this year for $640k, is smaller sf, half the size pool and smaller yard.Trying to put a number to this property, thoughts?

This is inline with other organizations that typically say 3% - 5%.imho you discriminate if you try to repunish anyone after they faithfully served time and are off probation. or block they only or singularly because felony. avg 25% are innocent ie 25% of all incarcerations are forced, from intimidation, lying, confession done illegally, unethically or immorally obtained at gun point fearfully wrong. if you have no 1st hand experience please do real interviews, research etc. 25% is just not all from one source  as i said its only starting point. lots felons are for weed. innocence project doesnt handle all cases but based on tiny amount they do cover for free per limited # state and dont cover all states nor have unlimited tax money like local da ag have. they are one example and only handle certain cases. you must dig deeper than one organization or one year. any cop, ag or da makes many mistakes than 1 4. https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_56ac0374e4b00b0...you are ignorant blind or safety bubble hasnt popped yet. some day soon youll be in cuffs and wonder why. its inevitable in police state. and despite your lack of compassion, grace or mercy ill still give you honest chance rent. more than most  courts give people today. 

We managed to deal with all the wear and tear issues without too much pain, even the toddler. 

My investment strategy focuses on long-term, low-maintenance SFRs in high-demand areas, aiming for cash flow rates above 7%.The market dynamics can vary significantly from state to state, and even from block to block within a city.
