I have definitely learned that if I anticipate 3-4 months to "find" all the hidden gems (insane tenants or lack of them, bed bugs, "do it yourself" tenants that kill two units) that my patience and tolerance level to "pain" (pain = the dreaded phone call that you are not going to cash flow this month) is much higher. 

That's right... vintage... straight from 1983 original.

Yeah I've heard that Minneapolis is a hidden gem for real estate investing while browsing through BP.Additionally, I hear that it's an "up and coming" tertiary tech hub, but it's quite hard to believe since pretty much every city wants to be known as the next "up and coming" tech hub lol. 

So many gems here!

Sometimes it is in between A and B, B and C, C and D areas were you can find a gem that has the most potential to bring to the next level.Although the market is not as good as it was a few years ago for deals, they are certainly out there!  

Who doesn't like to have nice things to look at or be able to sample multiple vintages and turn a coin?

If you want to uncover hidden gems on MLS, consider.. at least consider getting your real estate license - else you are at the mercy of your realtorGO NATS !

Which town do you think will be the hidden gem?

On the same token, I believe I have been presented some gems.

However, a strong rental demand, healthy property value increases, supply lagging behind demand in the B & C property types, and continuous population growth can really make an LA commercial property a gem in someone's real estate portfolio.Some of the areas I would find interesting are Eagle Rock and Highland Park.
