Are you looking to invest in a market that's already demonstrated strength, or bet on something that may or may not take off later?

To find those more fixer upper homes in a C or B neighborhood, I recommend going offline (e.g. something like Propstream) or door to door. 9 out of 10 MF properties I see on Zillow et. al in the greater providence area don't cash flow enough to be valuable as a investment without overly optimistic assumptions.
