I've studied the Jacksonville are for a long time and last I looked it's still pretty dead. You need to find recently rehabbed properties to get good comps. I'm hosting a field trip to Atlanta - there are better opportunities there, and I'm investing in Chicago - great profit spreads. I'm anxious to get to Florida but it's still got some issues. I have a blog post on finding the best profit spreads by zip-code and find that tool very useful. Enjoy!
The link to your blog doesn't work. It doesn't work without the s a "www" in front. That usually happens when you don't have the proper setup with your domain registrar. It's been to long, so I apologize as I forget what that setting is.
I've done a half dozen or so in JAX.....careful of the CDD fees on some places if its a recently built foreclosure. I got hit hard by one once and it wiped out the entire profit margin. Never experienced one before going to duval county.
Anywhere that has a large amount of foreclosures and a large population you can flip. Don't worry if there are 1000s of flips or 100s of flips out there, you only need a few at a time.
