Depending your goals and resources, if you get the right team on the ground, investing here (especially since you know the area), could be an excellent option.  

Nevertheless, definitely continue nurturing that relationship.

I’m confident in my ability to do a lot of the work on the house If need be however I don’t own all the proper tools to do so and there is stIll a lot of steps that go into flipping I don’t have experience in (I.e. tile, flooring, sheet rock) due to previous jobs I have relationships with a large multitude of contractors, electricians, plumbers, carpenters etc I don’t have a specific house picked out at the moment however I do have several target neighborhoods I’ve been keeping an eye on.

Excellent things to think about.

Perhaps, but these buildings were built within the last 30 years and seem to be in excellent condition so there's no upside there.

Excellent point!  

Like anything, building the relationship is key.

Now, the real question is; will this affect your "relationship" with her parents?

I don’t use them myself just because of a previous relationship but Ball and Minor would be who I would go to.
