Hi LoriAs a fellow realtor I would suggest keeping this website in your back pocket for your future clients. https://www.areavibes.com/This website is a great reference point for figuring out what each area is like.It gives you a total LIVABILITY score for each street and zip code.

I thought he meant the street in roseville.

There are clear affluent areas and forgotten areas of Janesville, but I will always stand by my opinion of tenant screening being the best defense of your rental property value.The Northeast side is, by popular opinion, one of the best areas to be in for newer duplexes and larger lots (for more money, of course) - take a drive down the side streets off of Wright to get an idea.The homes here are at a premium price, and rents are higher, but we've found the ROI is too low to start out in that area. 

I also like Peer Street which is rated well.

I know it's an old thread, but was Enhanced the newest name of Easy Street?

When I was evaluating this purchase there was a duplex across the street for sale (about $600k).

There are probably 10 experts here on BP that work different states with different rules and procedures, I think every one of them agree that you want to see every property you bid on in PERSON, not on google street view, not on sat view, not on some website. 

take Oakland and Oakland Schools  Piedmont Borders Oakland if you cross one street into Piedmont with Piedmont schools the values literally DOUBLE for the exact same house.  

You might know of the vacant house down the street and be saavy enough to do the research and hunt down the owner and sweet talk yourself into a deal.
