(by neighborhood I mean one named area)  I am farming a single school district (Although, we have begun to expand into other areas.) in a suburb.  

Schools wouldn't be a big concern in this case.

They had moved in from out of state, and I had helped them get situated with schools, doctors, etc when they were new in town.  

That is not magic, just a creative use of the fundamentals of real estate.

@Brie Schmidt Out of curiosity, on the values of your duplexes varying by blocks, could it be due to school districts? 

After going back to school and getting a 9-5 I've done some soul searching and found out that it's not quite for me. 

I would plan to stay local, probably limiting my movement to the current school district I live in so my kids wouldn't be school hopping while all this is going on over the next 4, 5, 6 years or however long it takes to run its course.  

This will allow me to create a positive cash flow, get non refundable option consideration and a backend profit or…Use the magic of $1.00 to create an assignment and collect a fee.The home was free and clear and I asked him if I offered all cash what price will he give me.
