I am sure there are some blocks that would make fine rental properties.

some paint, nice fixtures, colorful drapes, neat homes with a decent landscape do the trick, not some stupid RE agent saying, "look at this marvelous kitchen."

The theory goes on to state that we should time block and enable time to excercise them on a daily basis.

We had one person blocks away that used to call the Sheriff and complain.

Personally kind of like the color it is.

We are both going to be kicking ourselves for not keeping that one in 10 years. 2 blocks from the water - what were we thinking.

If people regularly get shot for the "colors" they're wearing, then you're in a war zone.

I also found three houses on the same block that are abandoned and need lots of work.

It's actually a very classic color.

Right or wrong, those reasons were our motivation for looking at MF property.What we ended up buying was a package of 18 one-bedroom condos in a city nearby my workplace, from a landlord who had accumulated them in blocks over the past 20 years, paying $400k for the package.
