If you concentrate as far north as Manchester you will start to have a big fall off in the amount of MA people willing to go that far.  

On the north side of Cincy, I would look at Colerain, Mt.

In Dallas, substantial growth has moved 25 miles north even though cheap accessible land is just south and east.  

,I am new as well and am based in North Hollywood. 

Anything heading North, nearing San Marino is the best and always is easiest to sell.

My husband and I have been buying pre-foreclosures in North Carolina for about 10 years now and we find all the information on line for free.  

And as was pointed out before, you budget ZERO for capex, an absurdly low amount for maintenance on old houses in the North, you assume zero vacancy (even for tenant turnover),  your ARVs are not supported by actual comps, and your rents are, charitably, higher than most might expect to get.You don't even throw the "home warranty as a replacement for capex" stuff into those numbers.One wonders, if you are doing this sort of deal all day long, why you need to sell seminars and mentor services.

As you get north of the center of Macon the area becomes quite nice in and around the Riverside area. 

Hi,I am interested and actively looking to invest in North east TX and around DFW area for MHP.

Up here in the cold north 2x6 is a must.
