I am not kidding when the company filmed it and wore suits for the training video.Luckily the other 3 units had minimal bugs and they were all mostly concentrated in this one unit.From this property I gained a ton of experience and know when to buy and how to buy now years and years later.

Have ever heard of concentrated orange cleaner deodorizer or heavy duty concentrated citrus degreaser cleaner?

I would not put much faith in this tactic, and would concentrate on good insurance, and setting up and properly maintaining legal entities in an ethical manner. 

What areas are they concentrating in?

I didn’t want to charge that as the damage was concentrated in two rooms but I couldn’t replace carpet in in those rooms.  

Without having to think about it, I would probably concentrate my investing dollars in Dallas / Fort Worth.1) Population is estimated to grow over a million from 2010 - 2020. 2) GDP is one of the highest3) 0 state income tax and overall good public school system4) One of the lowest unemployment in the country 5) One of the highest salary in the country and the low cost of living.6) Dallas/Forth Worth Real Estate market was practically recession proof during the 2006 - 2012 downturn while Real Estate in the rest of country practically fell off a cliff.These are all attractive features of why Dallas is a good place to invest.

I am not sure in which areas to concentrate on my search for the flip market.

For your first few deals, not obtaining your license just yet would allow you to concentrate on other things, specifically managing contractors and locking down a system with your partners.b.)

I suggest that instead of concentrating in the property you should concentrate in the deal.

Although I have no problems with my rental in that area, I am now only buying close to where I live as I have explained below.I have so far limited my future investments to subsets of 19149, 19120 and 19111, only because these are near where I live, I know these neighborhood well, houses can be bought for between 70 and 120K (the pockets I concentrate on) and rent for 900 to 1200 a month.
