Because of things we can't discuss in this forum that are politcal, social, etc its just easier for these households to head into inner-ring suburbs, you can't get around the math.Remember they will be at that plant 10-30 years, with a very defined salary schedule, the people at Rock Connections will be there 6-36 Months, and their income is very unpredictable.

It's not that the whole city is "bad", it's that it takes much more insight to do it successfully vs picking up a 1.75% deal in Westland which you know is a C- neighborhood and what to expect.Statistically, a lower probability of a stolen furnace can be found in the "ring cities" most of the cities bordering the City.

Find a middle-to-outer ring of Denver to buy in.

@Marina Mooney we're very experienced rental property managers and always recommend the Ring Cities directly touching Detroit.

Ring sub-burbs like Roseville, Warren, and Redford are another world. 

DO you want to continue to live in NY, where cost of living is going to increase and where they champion kicking out 25,000 high paying jobs that would create an additional 75,000, with job multiplier.

@Aaron Mikottis is the ring leader.

Here's a link to the new event post.http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521/topics/203...Give me a ring in the meantime if you want to chat.

We own a lot of "doors" and mange for about 40+ more landlord clients.So about that appreciation...If you are familiar with the traffic reports in MA then you know the heart of Boston proper and the concentric rings of Interstate 128/95, and 495.

I’ll give them a ring!
