Multi Family near Ft Irwin Barstow CA - To Buy or Not To Buy

[Quest R.]

Hi,

We are looking at a few multi units in barstow and we came across one which seems to at a good price (good cashflow assuming each unit rents for a minimum rent). It is very close to FT IRWIN.

But we are not sure about the investment as we are not familiar with Barstow and the local economy there.

Is Barstow a good place to own multi family units?

Is being close to Ft Irwin an advantage or a dis-advantage?

All your responses are greatly appreciated!! Thanks for the help and useful information!
