Moderate crime rate.

@Ericka Grant I don't think the BP moderators will let me do that wthout having a fit.There are no shortage of HML's in CA; I'd presume the same is true in your area?

I think one of the BP moderators (James Wise) is in that market, and I think he is a realtor.Consider reaching out to him.In addition, if you haven't already, join your local REIA.  

Moderator Note: Discussing the creation of an event in this forum is fine, but event announcements are only allowed in the Events Forum.

You can do real estate and school both in moderation and win...and you should.

I just looked at one the other day that was moderate reno, nothing crazy but was next door to a neighbor who had junk overflowing his entire back yard.

People always had to put more down (20%) and people that are in the second home market are at least moderately successful to even be thinking about a vacation property.I think in a moderate economic down turn, the wealthy will actually diversify out of stocks and into real estate, into markets where they feel their money is safe.

The blogging format allows for conversation and questions, without the worry of moderating a forum, which can be tedious.Just my $0.02

Hey @Raffaele Bruno looks like I mentioned something that appeared as a solicitation to the system/moderator...just had some information to share.

Two pieces of advise.Stick to an area you can drive to in a moderate amount of time.
