@Jon HoldmanThank you for the clarification, I didn't realize there is such a distinction with the IRS!

The deals have ranged from 4 properties (10 total units) to the largest being 20 properties (28 units).  

The current demographics show a predominately black neighborhood with most inhabitants living well below the poverty line.Please see this very interesting website on overtown-http://overtowner.comRegarding the difference between Overtown and Little Haiti, if you view it from a sheer geographical standpoint you can see the distinct difference.Little Haiti is a fairly large area with 2 borders that are very haute couture and 2 borders that are like a faux pas.Overtown is a smaller precinct with hot real estate in every direction.

Fun fact: The last time California voted on full legalization (I don't remember the prop number), Mendocino (probably the largest grower county by volume) and Humboldt had the LOWEST percentages of yes votes of California counties, mostly to protect the prices and lifestyle up here. 

The largest age population is 20- 35yr, making for great rental and first-time home buyer markets.

Phill and Shenoah Grove run the largest Austin REIA.  

Most of the time, those folks who do not make the distinction and at the same time accent the "pennies on the dollar" either do not know what they are talking about or are trying to sell you something.

at the time and it was the largest model. 

You have no idea...It really isn't hard, though, to draw a distinction between commercial signs that might be up for months, and political signs that are not only up for less time, but are exactly the sort of thing the First Amendment is meant to protect.

for me in general the more distressed the bigger the opportunity...my largest returns have come from building ground up....but agree with above, need more info for sure
