One block can perform very well, and another block will destroy you.Before you invest, I recommend you locate a quality PM that can help you narrow down markets, determine which rentals perform best, cross-check sales prices and rent rates, and take over management right away.The biggest mistake you could make is to get talked into buying in the wrong neighborhood and then learning that the good managers won't touch it. 

Congrats on finding willing private lenders!
