Tampa at the Wal Mart and Target and all the Restaurants need is Affordable Housing.

If you want to categorize I'd say B class is rents from $1100-$1800/month in Phoenix - at least that'd be my definition, along with an area that doesn't look blighted (minimal/no graffiti, decent cars, etc).What price range would  you target (i.e. $140k-$225k)?

I normally target 75 cents on the dollar.However, I haven't used property management on my SFH's.  

Try to target B class neighborhoods that will get you some good appreciation.

I've found that if you're wholesaling, there's a lot less targeting by area, you kind of just go where the deals are.I mean, if you want to send out direct mail and target a specific area, both of those areas are fine though my sense is you might find more deals in Federal Hill vs the East Side (College Hill) since the latter tends to have more properties owned by folks with a decent amount of $ and I think you're less likely to find distressed situations there.But bad things happen to good people everywhere, including the East Side, so I'm sure there are deals there also.I'd recommend targeting by situation rather than by geographic area, or in conjunction with it I guess, for example something like "mail all the non-owner-occupied 2 and 3 family properties in Warwick" (or in 02905, or whatever) or "all the divorces that have happened in the last 6 months in Providence".

Here's a snip-it, and I include the web link so you can see the full set of requirements below.  

I'm a buy and hold investor in Indy so I'm not your target audience.

You can find these at the BP marketplace or other platforms like meetup.com or LinkedIn.Google "We buy homes Salt Lake Valley".Call up any bandit signs in or around your target area. 

However, I think you can put together a plan around the target market, type of purchase, etc.

@Ali Boone What areas do you target that are at the beginning of their boom?
