I used school districts to find the right neighborhoods.Just a thought.

Fast forward to today and I've been doing the same type of work (admin support for faculty) with a small increase in pay and a title change.

Use key words similar to this example:  I'm selling my equitable interest in a 3bd/2bt/2car SFH located in ABC school district.  

Property is locate in a B/C neighborhood and good school district.

Neighborhood, school districts etc etc)How can you tell if it's a buyers or sellers market?

Whenever dealing with Turn Key properties, absolute due diligence is a must: check out the company through the State, BBB, and references; background check the people you are dealing with; get copies of tenant documentation; perform your own tenant qualification; order a house inspection; get an insurance quote; review area crime reports; speak with area businesses and Chamber of Commerce; review local school district; if you can visit and drive the area, etc.  

My favorite multi-family buildings are the Mathews Flats in the Ridgewood North and South Historic Districts. 

A little background on the area: it is in a smaller East Texas town that has a great school district that attracts a lot of families.

Here is just one developer at the helm http://matthewsllc.com/ .The City of Mishawaka which in my opinion is joined to the City of South Bend at the hip has the second largest retail corridor in the entire State of Indiana and a highly desirable school district.

My usual approach is to find 3/1 or 3/2 single family houses in a good school district, but my budget will be rather low for this move since my family is staying in OH and we'll be running two households.
