IMO, you best bet is to define your goals, objectives, liquidity constraints, budget and time commitment (how active or passive you'd like to be).

The street where I live now every house but one has a tile roof.

.,) amount of time you can commit, and if you are looking for active income or passive income.

Finally after several more sewer backups affecting others in the street the city decided to replace the sewer main BUT NOT the old ceramic lateral feeds from our basements.

It's always good to connect with others in the area that are active on here and in the market.

Main Street Abstract.

Westwood is not a homogeneous neighborhood, and statistics like crime really should be considered on a street-by-street basis.

That's why I believe the best, most reliable resource in any market is the community of active investors/landlords/wholesalers operating within that market.When I need to get caught up on a new market, I search right here on BiggerPockets for members operating there and ask for their help.

the city is redeveloping 3 streets down a bunch of condos and town houses will be finished this summer.

I'm very active in the market in many different ways and would be happy to discuss with you.
