Is Allentown, PA a good place to flip?
Hey guys! I've been looking at SFHs in Allentown, PA (Lehigh Valley) to flip. Does anyone have any experience doing this in this area? Any advice?
Thanks!

@Jessica Devlin - There are some good opportunities in the B neighborhoods throughout the Lehigh Valley for flippers. The shortage of affordable housing in the market has created a strong demand for 3/2 SFHs in a good school district. I typically see slimmer profit margins on the row homes then I am comfortable with, but I do know some people that flip those successfully. The key there is having a very affordable contractor for the project. Good luck!
