If you can't get a professional looking job, it will look like the tenants (novices) painted it, and will lower the desirability of the unit for the next occupants.Keep with neutral, off-white colors, keep it simple--it will broaden the appeal to the greatest number of potential renters.

If you are north of the Watterson the property values are a little lower and the rent a little lower.

This one we wanted to put in my name as a second home so we don't have to put 20% down and have a lower interest rate.

Lower income does tend to mean more people; although 750 per door seems like a lot.

too much money chasing to few deals which leads to over paying.also sellers know this so they keep reserves up.. key is to follow them many times they don't sell and come back on at lower prices you have to work to get deals on that site..

It's a 2 bed/1ba that I have rented for $1200/month.My other properties are further out from the city center and in safe, but more lower middle to middle class neighborhoods. 

The Zestimate on my house has gone up so now it is around 230K, still lower than what it should comp at but much better than the original price they had it at.

Upper (and lower) South Providence has had some economic redevelopment type money for specific properties over the past decade, but I don't necessarily feel it's improved the neighborhood as a whole.South Providence is a closer to downtown, but Silver Lake is closer to the west end which is also nicer so I think they're about the same, if anything Silver Lake is slightly better since downtown/downcity isn't really residential.
