From the opinion of you all who live or invest near the Uptown area, is the crime really that bad?

I am a veteran myself living in Virginia.

Being about an hour away from Greenville (and hearing great things from friends who have lived there in the past) I am curious how the market is looking.

We live in Pennsylvania, and we are both licensed realtors here.

Where I live in Lake Tahoe, Nevada there are HOA associations have been poorly run, multiple insurance claims from snow damage, and as a result are increasing fees to cover the low fees of the past and capital expenditures that have been put off for years. 

HI Erias,You can always start off by house hacking meaning you live in one UNIT or ROOM and renting out the other vacant units/rooms to offset your monthly mortgage payment.There are several ways to run and make sure you are maximizing your rental income while keeping your living expense as low as possible.

The cost of living is extremely low compared to other cities and you can still many many positive cash flowing and 1% deals here.

I've never done a course, but I always had trust issues on these type of things.I am Canadian, I live in Toronto.

These smaller-scale developments not only cater to the growing demand for affordable housing but also promote community living, walkability and neighborhood or community revitalization.Collaboration has been key in navigating these challenges, with developers, lenders, and policymakers working together to find innovative solutions.
