NYC duplexes/townhomes, Williamsburg, Cobble Hill, Fort Greene, Long Island City, Astoria, Middle Village, Mott Haven, etc.The areas with the best potential cashflow/cost of living savings will likely be neighborhoods with more active inventory and more turnover - i.e.

In Columbus I would look into neighborhoods south east of Downtown, such as Merion Village, Livingston Park, and Old Oaks. 

Hi Yona, I'm a big fan of Southern Orchards, South of Main, Whitehall, Reynoldsburg, Olde Towne East, Old North, and Merion Village to name a few.

My hope is that the clientele we bring in won't completely trash the place but I realize that is just wishful thinking and that people, regardless of income/ what they are willing to pay, can behave like animals (I was in the auto industry before becoming an attorney and the things I saw walking trades will forever haunt me). 

Most of my clients purchase turnkey investment properties in areas like Old North, Merion Village, Southern Orchards, Old Towne East/King-Lincoln Bronzeville, Driving Park, North Linden, North Hilltop, Franklinton, Reynoldsburgh, and Hungarian Village.

@Rome Gal, btw La Costa Resort and Carlsbad Village Inn both sell the same business model as the Hard Rock Hotel in downtown SD.

I agree we should be out of credit card debt, with no auto debt and with an emergency fund prior to buying a primary res with debt.

The latter eh that's when you see folks get ruined.Overall best to let the village handle it, like they did with the Indiana guy if that's who we are talking about.Folks are coming upon hard times, and I'm seeing more scams than ever and even when I'm out of the country the creativity is remarkable.
