If you use common sense, you can find great deals here, great partners here and find the exact investment return and experience you are expecting.As an out of state investor, here is a list of zip codes that you should at a minimum be aware of:38002 - Lakeland area38053 - Millington area (Very Selective)38016 - Cordova area38017 - Collierville area38018 - Cordova area38109 (East of Neely, Very Selective)38104 (Very Selective)38111 (Very Selective)38114 (Very Selective)38115 (Very Selective)3811638117 - This is Memphis proper, but an area known as Whitehaven - worth noting.38118 (Very Selective)3811938122 (Very Selective)38125 (includes county only areas, no city taxes)38128 (Very Selective)38133 - Bartlett area38134 - Bartlett area38135 - Bartlett area38138 - Germantown area38139 - Germantown area38141When I say very selective, that means it is just as easy for local investors to get duped in these zip codes as it is for an out of towner, so as an investor, my company is super selective on what we will and where we will buy and manage.  

Decide how much money you have access to, &the zip codes, city or state you want to focus on.

I have identified 7 zip codes that I like, so it makes it easier to narrow down deals that could work for me. 

You can search for closest real estate groups within distance of your zip code.

Some folks are fine with writing an offer or sending a LOI with a price based on advertised P&L numbers, but I find my final offer will often be in a different zip code (because listing agents/brokers tend to either not know, or not present factual information - or take sellers at their word.)

Are certain zip codes used or is it more based off of the potential sellers financial situation?

hi nathan, ive been a flipper in other areas for decades and have only 1 under my belt here in boulder (gun barrel) for a $70K profit.....since, ive been watching several zip codes and watching sales, comps, etc.....ive been looking for a bit for a perfect property (cash, no contingencies, worst house on the block sort of thing)....and honestly, a HOT market here in the boulder/denver area is not really a flippers market in my humble opinion....if you look at comps in the hot areas, houses are selling quickly, whether they are remodeled or not.....and the remodeled ones are not selling for any higher prices....finding comps to justify remodel and closing costs with a profit are just not there.....particularly if you are hiring subs and unless you find the perfect buyer with additional cash for large down payment, you will have a hard time selling a flip for more than the surrounding comps because buyers wont be able to get a loan for the increase....this is what im running into.....this isnt to say that there arent opportunities out there, but the risk is higher than usual in hot markets currently....L
