Got cash, good credit but majorly stuck.
I’ve got $100k, I’ve already gotten pre-approved for a loan however I’m stuck on where to buy my first investment. I’ve read much of the BP investing in rental properties book - I know about neighborhood classes, what pitfalls or opportunities to look out for - however having issues pulling the trigger on WHERE EXACTLY to buy. Maybe I missed in the book? I’m getting lost in the sheer volume of location options - do I buy in San Diego, North Carolina, Ohio etc...
In a world that my proximity to investment property is not an issue - what are the first best steps in pinning down location of investment?
Any guidance you have is appreciated.

Find the criteria that's important to you, and then take action.
I started by calling realtors and property managers in the markets I thought of. It causes you to take action without committing any finances
