What are the best out-of-state market assembly tools?

Looking several markets, some I’m familiar with, others aren’t- but seem very lucrative! I’m looking for cash flow!!

Here is my quick analysis of Columbus, Ohio. It includes factors in a market that help determine the strength and future growth of a real estate market. 

Columbus, Ohio is a great market to invest in. The population has been growing here year over year over the last decade, it is home to The Ohio State University which has over 50,000 students that live here along with those that visit, and it also holds a diverse range of young professionals and traveling nurses to fill the demand of the multiple business corporations and hospitals stationed here. Tech companies are continuously moving here and establishing a footprint in Columbus as well. Intel is a great example, who is building the largest chip manufacturing plant in the US right here, and it will be a $20 billion dollar investment that brings a few new thousand jobs.
