Market Analysis Tools
BP Community,
I am looking to invest OOS (currently reside in NJ, right outside of NYC) and was wondering what some of the best tools and resources are to analyze and research different markets? I am trying to build my crystal clear criteria so I can then start to work towards building my team in the out of state market that I eventually choose. Let me know!

Great place to start @Andrew McElroy I personally started my investment journey in Cleveland and then Akron and Tampa. I personally like the secondary markets, my clients find great success in Toledo. I prefer my secondary market (Akron) but quite a few of my clients also go in Kansas City and Memphis. I personally do not know these markets but they are popular around here.
