So, after watching 'Rochester, A City of Poverty I started looking into property problems across New York, especally upstate. It turns out there is a lot about Property Flipping, and I found this great video about property flipping in Buffalo, at Fix Buffalo weblog.
As with any semi-legit busiess, a poor-man's barometer of the problem is as close as E-Bay Realestate Auctions.

Hey,
Things for all the traffic! Rapidly developing story on the City's near east side - "Progressive" housing agency and Artspace manager wants to destroy one of Buffalo's most unique streets...Coe Place.
Check back in a day or so for news and updates...
