In the interest of connecting with agents here, my interested markets are:Bloomington-Normal, ILCrescent City, CAColombus, GALouisville, KYSavannah, GA Peoria, ILMilwaukee, WI

Each of those cities have their own pros and cons but I can speak to the Columbus market.

However, I have had colleagues of mine do Section 8 housing in New York and have success with it. 

Quote from @Reyna Ayala: Hi first time landlord to a duplex in new city.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.DM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

please send me a case example I'd love to read. that's one appraisal. the knowledge I have as a licensed general contractor working with investors from 5 cities at a time all over the country buidling 3 different floorplans I would say trumps one ADU you read about online 

But I do know our city needs a lot more of the first type. 

Population and economic growth, strong tourism, proximity to other New England cities.

In most of Raleigh city limits specifically, the lack of room to build new construction developments has stirred the folks in zoning.

Ashley, what city are you in?
