I want to know basically more about what people think about the area. its located right by a police station.

I am closing on a duplex in an up and coming area of Logan Heights just a few hundred feet from the train station (and a few blocks up from the police station lol), and it has been completely rehabbed from the ground up (not by me) so I have a perfect situation to view the cap ex timeline from the start, thanks for putting this post out there and giving me some ideas!

If you are a public servant (EMT, nurse, teacher or work at a school, work at a non-profit organization, military, police) then you can get your loans paid off in 10 years through the Public Service Loan forgiveness program.

Called bank on "abandoned" property but they havn't taken action for 3 years and probably won't becuase the county will get the property and the bank will be out at least 150k, so they have no real incentive to move on this at the moment.What I have done:1) HOA won't help at all, and had no advice.2) Low Income housing authority says they are looking into it, but no action so far and apparently the owner has to sell or sign the property back over to them for anything to really happen.3) Health department and Code Compliance department are "investigating" but no real action either.4) Called bank/servicing company, but they havn't done anything as they have no incentive and it would take 90 days to evict people anyway.5) Called police on the fights and they have come, but they are still there.6) Got the owners number and talked to him when he showed up one day (driving his lexus).

After graduating college, I received my commission as an officer in the Army and shortly after started my career as a police officer with the Los Angeles Police Department.

Had the agents do a police report and secure the household.

I’ve recently come across a $169K fixer upper house in an area with a median price of $250+K houses, seems it needs a complete remodel from a 2bd, 1br; to a 2bd, 2br with a new kitchen, maybe new tiling in the kitchen, polishing the entire wood floor, replacing a few window seam boards, etc.

The Bigger Pockets calculators are helpful for putting a polished analysis together to present to investors.

The police said if he were to drive the truck onto the property, then you can sue him for any damages he does to the new landscaping.

When I called them on it, they simply said "We can only show you the data as we get it from a listing agent and if they don't update the data - we don't police it."
