Shoot me a message with your address - I pulled a thorough market report from neighborhood scout for my area before purchasing.

:5 unit C class building in a C neighborhood.

I want to do right by the neighborhood.

The home they are selling is in a great neighborhood and it is really nice so I don’t think they should have any issues selling.They will sign a first right of refusal so if I receive another offer I must give the current buyer 48 hours notice to remove their contingency, if they don’t I can go under contract with the second offer.

This will help you keep things organized and make accounting much easier in the future (like during tax time). 

Then ask yourself “If I had $100K would I invest it in this out of state rental property in a neighborhood which I know nothing about?”

An investor who revitalizes neighborhoods and provide rental housing.

The entire Cambridge neighborhood has been gentrified.

Get to know the people organizing the events, and the seasoned investors that attend (buyerslist*).

Investing is not up or down market specific, strategies are up or down market specific.Research areas can be based on cap rates, purchase prices, rents, other investors in the market, neighborhoods, crime, business growth, population growth, business journals, even some great data resources from large companies like Marcus and Millichap.
