1st time residential investment: Nashville

I am looking to buy a single family home in the Nashville area to rent out and build some passive income. I feel like I'm stuck because I've read books and watched videos but I don't understand how to research a specific neighborhood or understand what areas are up and coming. I've looked at several different websites that break down stats and it's just one big blur to me. I am overloaded with information and I have no idea how to pinpoint what is important and what is irrelevant. Any response is appreciated, thanks.

@Adam Lowe

1)Find a local Real Estate Investment group and go ask questions.

2) Determine if you are ready to make the jump into the investing... do you have funds and such

3) Drive around and look at the homes for sale and use the websites to see what type of house you get for your money. 

4) Work with a realtor if you are serious about buying but make sure you don't become a burden to them. 

Hope this helps!
