Ethically investing in poorer urban areas
7 June 2016 | 79 replies
Keep the units in good shape and they will love you, while you forever chase rents and evicted monthly.Your biggest problem is cost, your going to run into market constraints as you have to buy bottom dollar buildings, and compete with others who are buying the same buildings but making larger profits as they upped the rents, or flipped the units for big cash.There are poor people due to low education, and there is even more poor people due to mental health issues.

Originally posted by @Kurt Gardner:@Nick StoddardKeep it as simple as possible.OP specified he isn't renting C-D class properties, A & B properties garner their higher rents because of amenities, keeping it simple means you're posting on here all the time wondering why you can't rent it, these properties attract better quality tenants who take care of the properties better also you can and must put in some features to warrant the higher rents.Nick keep the ^^^^ in mind, you dumb down your rentals due to listening to people giving advice from perspectives of properties different than yours and you'll end up shooting yourself in the foot when you have trouble renting it due to your competitors properties offering more the money.Many landlords are cash flow investors, not equity investors, their properties are lower quality, lower quality tenants, lower expectations, lower rents, they step over dollar bills to pick up pennies, having a penny pinching mentality, don't fall into that trap.
