@Hersh M.

I know you have not done a detail on this but these may still be useful in the pre-analysis stage to determine moving forward. You don't have to put a whole lot of work into looking up crime, employment, comps, etc.

I use these sites as part of my research, you may find them helpful.

crimereports.com

findcompsnow.com - (I found one 4/2 @ $1350 2k sq ft 859 palermo rd)

rentometer.com

livelovely.com

And of course your typical maps.google.com search to see what the google car picked up. I plugged in the address and it looks to be a well kept neighborhood, at least at the time of the photo.

Have you looked up the taxes and other information from the jacksonville municipal sites?

Also, realtor.com has a feature on their page that if you put in your address for sale/rent you can click on the link of the neighborhood. This opens another window that has anything for sale or for rent in that area, thus narrowing down your search to just that area.

Good luck.

    What area of town is this in? There are areas of Jacksonville I would be wary of. This does look to make about 1.5% (for those that like that 1-2% rule). But again, location is pretty important in Jacksonville. Let us know!

    Reach out to Lesley Resnick, she is an agent in the Jacksonville area. She also is an investor.

    @Daria B.@Joshua Gordon Yeah its a low crime neighborhood. But schools are below average ratings. That zip has median price of 110k, so I was hoping people familiar with jax areas would be able to shed some light why this property is so cheap. I am not too attracted to sub-100k homes.
