We use Zillow to find finished product in a certain geography, and use TLO to skip trace them and get them on the phone. 

Hello @Chris Lounsbury, I will be moving to DC after graduation but I'm not tied to any particular geography for investment purposes, as of yet.

Geography shouldn't be the first determinant.

It is nice if you can work with someone local, but that is not always the best option.Rather than geography, i recommend you evaluate providers based on:Plan types offered as being suitable for your goals; custodial processing services, checkbook IRA LLC or checkbook Solo 401(k)Expertise, time in business, etc.Accessibility of support both during and following plan setupFeesCustomer ratings/recommendations

There are huge economies of scale when it comes to parking so not every "major" company is in every geography.  

For example, in my geography, it looks like this: http://www.miamidade.gov/propertysearch/#/This will give you the owner's name and the owners address.

However, in most geographies that I'm aware of, it just doesn't exist.  

The geography makes Arlington County, DC proper, and MD suburbs very difficult for commuters.

I think another good example is the RDU area in NC - where you have a really neat mixture of geography, but also the contribution from a few extremely top notch educational institutions that all compliment each other and are in close enough proximity to enjoy each other's spill over effects.
