Highly recommend checking out Zillow's annual housing trends report to see what renters really want.

Crime rate looks manageable, which is more relevant if this will be a rental and less so (but still important) if this will be a flip.Population trend is disappointing, unfortunately- negative 1.2% since 2000, much less than I'd expect for a city that close to Philly. 

I am seeing the same trends, thank you for sharing.

House is in good shape in a nice area. 

Underwriting the market includes looking at population trends, job trends, and housing trends.

It all looks to be in good shape, clean and functional. 

National averages are very different than local market trends.

As to #2 - I'd expand that to getting familiar with buying on seller financing in all its shapes and  forms: lease/options, pure options, contracts for deed, taking over payments on existing loans, wraps, traditional "seller carry back" financing.

PMs that will work in some areas are not available.The other main thing to look at is that the population in Memphis in trending downward, loosing a percent or half a percent each year historically.
