Investing in D/F neighborhoods

[Vann Calhoune]

Hey everyone,

Does anyone have any experience investing in D/F neighborhoods? I mean the worst of the worst. In the Kansas City area or just in general.

I see a lot of investors that shy away from these areas. If you are willing to deal with the tenants, are not scared to manage and be in these dangerous neighborhoods, and the deal makes sense, what are the downsides?

I feel as a new investor you can get houses dirt cheap, fix them up, and make a nice profit if your numbers are right.

I don’t mind putting in the leg work and dealing with the hassle, headaches and troubles you may not experience in A/B neighborhoods.

I have lived in these bad neighborhoods most of my life and know the area pretty well. I feel there are certain areas that will soon be “gentrified” and will appreciate well. I won’t depend on this when calculating deals but it is something that I feel is very likely to happen.

What are your opinions on investing in these neighborhoods? In your experience or what you’ve heard.

Any input would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks!
