I cannot even recall a single late payment.The primary difference between the Houston and Atlanta properties was the tenant segment the properties attracted, not the property itself.

," then you can be sure that they don't specialize in any particular market segment. 

Consider getting your license and/or entering a different segment of the industry.  

(you could also ask the Police Department to focus more patrols in these areas too).This way it seems like it would be more likely to attract investors and (safe) people to live there because they could lower their risk by concentrating in smaller areas at once vs just Flint.Carpenter to Hemphill, Clio Rd to Center Rd, it's not that big of a place, and you wouldn't need to number the whole area, just certain focus segments clustered around gentrifying business areas (because you are not going to replace the entire problem population--only butt up against them). 

Customizable MLS integrated website, squeezes contact info of visitors, create custom seller/buyer/market report squeeze pages, multiple ways to generate free leads, lots of integrations to pay for ads and retargeting with the leads plopping right in and getting marketed to, drip campaigns, market reports, property reports, newsletters, mass texts, segmentation, thanks.io integration, bomb bomb, voicemail drop, text codes for leads (text "house" to xxx-xxx-xxxx for a list of 3 bed homes under 200K!).  

There are still pockets here that present an opportunity to capitalize on the under supplied multifamily segment.

The price reductions that I am seeing are on luxury, as that segment has cooled off with the rise in rates. 

This is why I selected a tenant pool segment with the right characteristics.

Small towns may rely too much on a single business or market segment. - Metropolitan statistical areaBoth state and metro populations are increasing.

While mortgage brokers can cover a wide range many become experts in a certain segment of the broader market.Thanks in advance.John CoreyPS.
