Neighborhood recommendations for SFH flip in Knoxville, TN

[Patrick Madigan]

Hi BP! I'm visiting family in Knoxville for Labor Day weekend, and it just dawned on me that I should scope out neighborhoods for potential investing. I'm an agent/investor from Raleigh, NC, and love the idea of investing here, as well.

We're staying right off Westland Dr near Lyons View Pike, so I've been able to drive around some of the higher-end listings. 

I'd love to hear your recommendations on neighborhoods/parts of town where first-time home buyers and other entry-level SFH homes are purchased (~ under 250K). I'm also open to transitional neighborhoods that are becoming more popular to flippers. I plan to spend a few hours driving around today and tomorrow to get a feel for different parts of town.
