I had an extremely unusual conversation with @Chris Clothier today. Has anyone else experienced something like this? Here is what happened.

Apologies jason, I was confusing this thread with another one i had started asking about turnkey companies. Though whether I do things myself long distance or use turnkey, I am still confused as to how to pick a market

Hi Jason, Thanks for stopping by and commenting. You mention that I should "visit the market." As I mentioned in my initial post, I have no idea what should be "the market" for me. I'm looking for a rational reason to decide between Memphis, Little Rock, Indianapolis or any of 100 other markets. At this point, for me to pick one market over another would be as arbitrary as picking blue houses over yellow houses. Regarding picking a good house in a good neighborhood and needing to visit the market, shouldn't a top-tier turn-key company keep me out of bad or so-so neighborhoods? I understand that having a turnkey doesn't let me off the hook of ultimately being responsible for managing the house, but if I can't find a turnkey company to keep me out of bad neighborhoods, doesn't that suggest I am going to have much bigger problems in terms of them managing the property, finding and keeping good tenants, etc in the long run?
