Wholesaling/flipping company in Tuscon

[Robert Kough]

Hey!

So a friend of mine is considering starting a wholesale/flipping company in Tuscon in the near future.  He has had great success doing it in the midwest but is considering taking his business out west.  After doing a brief marketing analysis it seems to be a decent location for this kind of business. The marketing strategy will be direct to seller with intentions of buying distressed properties at a discount.  He wants to start in Tuscon to avoid the crazy phx competition. Is that worth doing or should he just go to the big market and bet on himself?  Its not like the midwest isnt flooded with hedge funds and i buyers now anyway! Any insight on the topic would be greatly appreciated!
