Not much - they didn't manufacture the product, they didn't transport the product necessarily, etc. 

A buffer was built and growth, funding, jobs transportation, etc. were all funneled away from North Memphis, Frayser in particular.  

I am putting in a small bathroom, enclosing the area inside where the automatic garage door is... city requires that all conversions in our area raise the floor.

Advertised a property as "Garden Dream Cottage" in a quiet neighborhood with a large fenced yard, enclosed vegetable garden bed, 7 fruit trees, lavender hedge, flower beds surrounding the house and 12 rose bushes.

Public transportation for residents is also easy and affordable.

The property should appreciate through increased rents in places with no buildable land, large differential from high and increasing housing costs nearby, close to employment centers with reasonable commute distances, and close to public transportation and freeways.

In addition to construction and repair, the funding also helps pay for transportation research at universities, funding for Puerto Rico’s highways, and “congestion relief” in American cities."

Better transportation infrastructure reduces cost for doing business and adds to the GDP and competitiveness of busineses using the inrastructure.

Basically, look for properties that are within 20-mile radius of two or more of the following: good schoolsnearby universities or state schoolshospitalsmain transportation shopping

Also, the light rail may be a liability to the area as the vagrants get transported there.
