If you are looking for a lower entry point in a up and coming neighborhood, I would suggest the Bishop Arts district in oak cliff.

What we've come to a conclusion about is that direct mail marketing is part art, part science.

Not only do National averages have nothing to do with your community, demographics are in motion too and jobs get lost as well as created AND that can vary between two cities in the same County.Setting the rent to the FMR on the day of signing the lease is one art. 

This was many months ago and I am way more educated on the art of wholesaling as well as buy and flip. what im wondering is newburgh worth investing in?

By low and sell high is a real art!!!

Here is my post from a year ago: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/55/topics/181...A brief synopsis of my situation: I am a martial arts school owner. 9 months ago we purchased a property on the square of my small town (30k ppl, bedroom community).

You learn the art of marketing and when you find a deal, you can make good money off of it.

There can always be detailed sessions and perhaps one on ones but I myself would like an "Art of the Deal" course....a A-to-Z blueprint of a deal from beginning to end and how a neophyte can follow the blueprint and apply it for themselves along with some resources they can go to and use.
