High Cash Flow Markets

[Karla Talancon]

Hey guys I am new to real estate investing. I am a recent graduate went to school for urban and regional planning. I've been doing some research and have decided to invest in Chicago, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Atlanta, and Jacksonville. Any tips or suggestions? Are people that are looking to invest in out of state for high cash flow also looking at these areas ? 

My reasoning behind these cities and with the help of US Census data I looked at population growth, rental vacancy rate, diversified economic drivers, judicial states (where the foreclosures take longer), landlord friendly states, affordability, percentage of renters vs owners, median house value, median income.
