imo both Fayetteville and Greenville have high transient populations from military and the university respectively so greater risk.

@Jake Gaines hey man i would totally disagree that TKs are good for starters but i completely respect your point of view and might i add it is alot better then if you arent in the position to be able to  just as mentioned by @James Wise they are awesome if you dont want to do anything (basically learn anything and can sit back and be know FOR THE MOST PART) that your investment is doing alright....BUT if you do want to learn i would recommend to go find a fixer uper thats cheap and get some real hands on experience regarding costs of repairs (which includes carpet kitchen washroom) but if this isnt something you are trying to get into and simply just wanting to put your money somewhere safe and make a small return then TK are one of the best and im with you if thats what your trying to do Best of luck in the future man

In respect to both renting and flipping, I feel like Seattle is such a hot/competitive market that I don't really know how anyone like myself could find the right house that meets all the requirements needed in order to be worth flipping, without someone else getting there first.......

There are a couple of good videos on Youtube that explain the process, but basically, you supply the mail pieces and drop it off at the designated post office (gotta fill out some forms and pay for it online first), and then those mail pieces will go out on the respective mail routes that you picked, hitting every mailbox along that route. 

Also treat the people you deal with respect.

Like I said all of the properties were about the same in all respects ie. size county price.

Show your respect by giving them something extra from you.  

So respectfully I educate them on my market this way.Hope that helps :-)

You could explore with your respective accountants creating a holding corporate structure that would take title to, control, and manage the portfolio.
