At least thats how I like to look at this type of project is to simply say whats my exit strategy if it gets ugly, and what recourse could come back on me (aside from losing that particular property and invested monies).Anyways, one thing that comes to mind for me is the Redding demographics and wondering how that would play into my renters pool.

I do think these investments offer great opportunities but only for those who are the type to operate liquor stores in the inner city.Class C properties can offer decent cash flow 1-1.5% GRM  while also offering appreciation in markets with good systematic demographics.  

The property itself is going to appeal to a demographic atypical for the area.

My target demographic isn't seniors who might not be tech savvy,and I don't deal in low income, so my tenants very likely will all have a smart phone.

I have seen a few properties in my area that are attractive. I came across a 6-unit condo style building that currently has 5 of its 6 units occupied and charges $720 a month plus utilities for $380,000 which I though...

Trulia.com is also a good aid as it will sometimes give you info on specific demographics like crime which can contribute to higher or lower rental prices.

Hi David,I mean that for demographic reasons the value of the property has gone way below replacement value.

Narrowing down your target demographic will definitely help make things easier when finding an end buyer.

I know from driving through that there is a different demographic and rougher areas than where I live in the fox cities just south of green bay.

The suburban markets with strong demographics is where many of the good buys are.
