Long Distance BRRRR Strategies

[Casey Sbrana]

I live in California so I'm obviously looking for deals out of state...

What tools, resources, websites, and general criteria do you guys use to find a 'BRRRR friendly' market out of state? David certainly talks about following employment trends, job growth, and high price to rent ratio; which are all great points. But how do I narrow down my search and notice those trends and other key criteria?

I'm all for putting in the time and hard work to research research research, and then the steps that follow. But my first major obstacle is actually where to observe and analyze this data and what exactly am I looking for. I don't yet feel confident in knowing how to narrow down my search to a city, or county. Any tips or advice?
