You want to get a feel for the housing stock and demographics of the area.

The City of Detroit offers investors great opportunities, but has a lot of low demographic related issues that require better than average PM thoroughness.

The general character, look and feel, etc. will most likely remain low-income for the immediate future just due to the architecture, layout and demographics. $350k is a decent price for a duplex anywhere in Boulder County, it’s a very entry-level price point.

@Robin Morales I suggest starting by looking at market data to determine where you will be investing.In todays world, investors can benefit greatly from the plethora of demographic and economic data available to them.

If you do buy appliances go to a resale appliance place and get them from there, they provide warranties and have good appliances for half the cost.Defintely provide  a clean and safe place but even adding an amenity or 2 to make it a little nicer than other units.I understand people's fear of C and D you got to have the personality for it and be able to understand that demographic meaning knowing what to look for in a prespective tenant.
