Letters and bandit signs in a concentrated area spread out over a consistent period have always proven strong in our markets.

One of our prospective tenants had some credit problems - but they were all concentrated in one period 4 years ago and due to specific life events.Everything since then was in good shape.

Again, since I suspected (months ago) that my cousin was going to try to screw me, I then decided to concentrate on selling ONLY MY HALF.

There aren't many areas in a city with a heavy concentration of 2/1 or 2/2 houses, those were mostly built pre-world war 2.

I am young and concentrating on building a portfolio and really feel now is the right market to expand.

Concentrate on learning as much as you can about these places online and from visits.

For conventionals if there is more than 51% investor concentration thats a problem as well if there if more than 15% deliquency of OTHER unit owners can cause you to not be able to sell or refinance the condo if needed.

I would say its the area that i feel i could impact the most and im excited about that, so i guess my emotion is involved...Im not in love with the area im concentrating on, but you could say im in love with its potential.

In our rehabs, I concentrate my "wow" factor to the front door/entrance and the kitchen.

For other types of delineation, you need to look at short sales, foreclosures and stuff that your average wholesaler concentrates on like probates and tax liens and whatnot.
