Hey Montez! Do you have a list of cities you're considering specifically? I just picked five and ran them through my algorithm to prioritize economic growth. It spit them out in this order.
Detroit and Flint continue to decline in population though, so, looking at the data, personally I would stay away from those areas.

Welcome David! I just moved to Tampa this year and bought my first property here. For. my next ones I do plan to buy closer to Lakeland since I think there is going to be more affordable growth in that direction.

I'd be happy to chat or meet up if you're evener down near Tampa.

Hey William, though I don't have all those datapoints you mentioned, I ran El Paso through my algorithm to find Class A neighborhoods based on what you mentioned.

Try checking out the bluer areas on this map:

Hey Amor, are you in Tulsa? If so, definitely drive around to see what the neighborhoods look like.
I ran Tulsa through my algorithm...maybe start with the bluer areas.

Hey Dylan, I'm not sure about specific companies, but as far as those cities go, I just ran them through my comparison algorithm, and honestly they all seem pretty neck-and-neck.
Memphis seems to be growing more than the others, probably the safest buy.. Cleveland seems to be a riskier buy but could give more reward. Baltimore is somewhere in the middle.
Getting in the right area/neighborhoods in whichever one you choose will likely be key.

hey @Bailey Clay, welcome to Tampa Bay!

I recently moved here too and am happy to connect.

Definitely check out Lakeland. If you can get close to downtown Tampa, do it, just be aware of elevation levels, water levels, flood zones, etc. My next investments will likely be closer to Lutz or Lakeland.

St Pete is great, and more popular...I just don't like how its basically all a flood zone 😬

Good luck!

Hey @Account Closed , I know the feeling...I left California several years ago searching for east coast investments. And I"m from SoCal so the lack of water hits home!

I ran the bigger cities you mentioned through some data I've been gathering, and they came out in this order, prioritizing rentals :)
Let's jump on a call if you'd like to dive into the others...they're different since they're smaller areas.
Hope it helps!

Hey @William Hinsche, if it were me, based on your criteria, I'd look at these darker blue areas, which looks like the NorthEast, NorthWest, and SouthWest from downtown.

Good luck!

Hey @William Hinsche, if it were me, based on your criteria I'd start looking at these areas that are darker blue, which seems to skew North, East, and SouthWest of downtown.

Good luck!
