However on the East side of Little Haiti bordering Biscayne there are some very nice streets.

Avoid online auctions if you like to gamble, and can't resist putting in "just one more" bid.3.  

From the city-data maps I've looked at, west Philly and pockets of north Philly are the places to avoid but I could be wrong.IMHO, yes to avoiding North and West, however, there are profitable neighborhoods bordering these areas.

I cannot go into the details of our current situation, but I will state that the renovations will outweigh the amount of rent we've collected from them over the past two years.For performance of credit checks, we use TVS (available on both sides of the border) and Rentcheck (Canada specific).  

I'm jealous of your second amendment rights, here in the not-so great state of NJ, that particular right to carry doesn't exist, youee the Constitution stops at our border with PA.  

I have been searching and these are the kind of houses that I am seeing on Craiglist, MLS, papers, etc..30K older homes in C/D neighborhoods that will rent out for about $575 - $650 with $5000 worth of renovations.70 to 100K 70ish homes in B/C neighborhoods that will rent out for $850 to $1200 depending on price and other variables.100 to 250K 80/90 ish homes in A/B neighborhoods that will rent out for $1200 to $1800 depending on price and other variables.Duplexes seem non-existent or as the podcast gurus have said are a "Waldo" property with too much downside to take a gamble.

The property mentioned borders Gravios Park on Louisiana. 

In fact, Wayne county borders up against Washtenaw county where you are familiar with *AA and Ypsi).  

  - there are a number of differences, but the regimes are broadly similar (in fact, the larger "cross border" funds are often two mirror funds, one in each country, that allow residents of each country to invest in the fund resident in their respective countries).  

But you are making a gamble on neighborhoods if you want any chance of cash flow.
