What data do you use to select a new market?

Posted

I am evaluating 5 or 6 markets and looking to narrow down to 2 or 3 to learn and invest in.

What metrics do you guys use when comparing different markets to each other to identify the ones with the most potential?

Aside from hard comparison data, what anecdotal wisdom do you apply across a list of markets you're considering to decide which one to focus on?

Thanks for any guidance you can offer.
