I’m looking right now for a project in that same neighborhood.

Which market you pick does not matter that much as who you work with (you are already on top of that) and how much YOU know about the market, which links back to physical access, in your case a direct flight and the ability to spend some time to learn about trends and neighborhoods, physically see some properties.The single best metric to qualify agents is production: 6 deals per year are average and indicates very little knowledge, over 15 is better.

There must be something to it, but goes against everything I've been taught.I've only recently started buying properties that were a little under my cash ROI standards in order to get out-sized returns from growing neighborhood, rent growth, appreciation, etc. 

However, there are great little pockets of neighborhoods in some of the older areas of town that are worth exploring. 

I have had solid progress with Figure, but would like to shop around a bit if possible. 

Yes, I am looking to shop around Figure's rates, LTV and origination fees.

That said, one thing to be careful with is how neighborhoods are graded.
