Also, it seems fairly safe for someone like myself- looking for a first investment and of course building wealth, but perhaps even more, trying to "get my feet wet" and learn the processes while getting a feel for real estate.

If you can show / prove to him that the park will be worth more because you are rebuilding the bathhouse, paving the roads and adding a playground then maybe he will feel more comfortable?

Hi I hope you all are doing wellI am looking to invest around the Lindell Bvld area but looking at the crime map it seems like it's not safe and looking at rentals there are too many rentals available leading to a saturated market.

I'm in a safe community where crime is low, so we don't have to worry about squatters, missing appliances, etc.

I don't know your market at all, but it's common for neighborhoods next to the hospital to not always feel safe to out of town nurses--- so just know proximity isn't always the main point.
