Newbie from Fayetteville, NC

@Alexander Felice - Thanks for the reply. I'm glad to get your positive thoughts on the Fayetteville, NC market. From my research there seems to be an abundance of SFR foreclosures. With the price rates that these foreclosures are being moved at, the large competition you mentioned makes sense.

Raised as an army brat, I can fully appreciate what exactly BAH can mean to a family. It seems appreciation in the area may be minimal, but I feel confident that with the military presence rent rates will continue to be solid for SFH purchased correctly.

I would love to hear more about the deals you've done in the area.  Any recommendations on neighborhood selection?  I have a solid understanding of the good and bad areas of Fayetteville, but this may not translate well in terms of communities that offer opportunity to an individual looking to complete their first deal.  My parents have recently moved to Wilson, NC where they rent a home to be closer to family now that my father has retired.  The home I grew up in (Vanstory Hills neighborhood) they have decided to sell.  This area is a little steep for me but would like get your thoughts on it.  

Thanks again for the insight!
