Areas that with houses for 50k

Are there any places that sell single family houses for 50k that’s not in a war zone? 

I’m looking for houses that I can buy that would cash flow in descent areas. I’m not looking for appreciation, so no need for that debate please.

    @AJ S. Show me a REIT that puts $10k in my pocket every month over time with a $50k initial seed investment and I'll sell all my properties and invest in it.

    So what would the purchase price range need to be from your prospective?

     $80K-$90K

    @Joe S.

    Find homes that are under 100k. Do nice rehab try to have purchase and rehab total 100k.

    But could rent for $1250-$1450 a month. I do this in metro Detroit.

    Pay cash if you ca, and you will make 10% on your investment every month. I've been doing this for last 10 years in Michigan. I profit 1k a month on average for every 100k invested. Good luck!

    Buy homes that are built above 1950's!

    I have SFRS in Memphis and have been very happy (11 years). I know a lender who will finance as low as $48K. My best cash flow is a property I bought for $34K and the rent is $700. I’m happy to share my experiences with you if you want to PM me. Good luck, Cj

    There's opportunities all day long in Kentucky. $40-50k, decent neighborhoods, moderate income and a good ROI all things considered.

    @Joe S. Tulsa Has a ton of 50k homes. They do get solid appreciation, some even in the path of progress and have rents of $750-$850. I Just sold a friend a house in what Tulsa calls "The Pearl District" which is really coming up quick for 55k. with about 5k in work it would rent for 750. Or I sold one not so much in the path of progress, little more crime in the area but overall not a bad neighborhood for 20k. needed 5-10k worth of work and would rent for 650-750.

    Zanesville is pretty diverse. You can walk down most any street and see houses renovated and look great and a few doors down one that needs some TLC. There are just a few streets that have more pockets of crime, but that may be even part of a street. I learned this evening that Zville is the 15th largest US city. We have a very large amount of growth here with some Fortune 500 companies booming and growing. I know every inch of this county, and would share my informal opinion on anything you stumble across. If you need an agent referral or 2 to do some leg work for you that are investor friendly I'm happy to suggest a few. Best of luck, this area could be an investor's gold mine for buy and hold in my opinion!

    I personally own several properties in Memphis, Tn that are under $50,000. They are preforming well too! You just need to make sure you take a few important steps on the front end of the purchase to ensure they go smoothly.

    Joe - You've received a ton of responses on here so great job, but I would add one note of caution.  Be sure to define specifically what you are looking to avoid when you say war zone.  So many people define things differently and although I have not read every response, I've read a ton about "great areas, performing great, really good deals", but nothing specifically about defined war zones.  

    What if you can see boarded up houses from the front door of the house?  Does that meet your definition of war zone?  No Gand graffiti or if you watched for an hour you couldn't spot a drug house?  Maybe you mean there has not been a shooting or an arrest made on the block one a set period of time.  There is no set definition for war zone so...  Specifics like that may make it easier for you to really zero in on an area.  Good luck -
