Evaluating Different Real Estate Markets

[Sean Agid]

Hi everyone,

I am curious was to what factors people look for when evaluating which real estate markets to buy investment properties in?  Is it population growth, landlord tenant laws, rental growth, job creation, etc.  I am mostly curious about residential including single family, multifamily (2-4 units) or an AirBnB rental.

Thank you,

Sean

I would say all those factors are important.   You get a lot of that information from city-data.com.   

Another important is crime and that data is available as well.   Nothing beats being the place physically and just getting a feel for it.

Also migration patterns are people moving in our out of that area. Where are they moving from.  Alot of moving companies have that data as well.  Hope that helps!
