On top of that, I have been pushing some travel all this time, and I can no longer do it for personal reasons, so on the 14 of August, I'm not even in the country. 

It looks like we are on opposite sides of the country, but we still have a bit in common.

I found Town and Country, Chris Ivy.

Matter of fact, felons are probably the most discriminated against group in this country without any recourse or major advocacy.There are over 2 million Americans with criminal convictions and we have the highest arrest and conviction rate among children of any first world country.

I guess that is plausible to be in the real estate industry and tourist in Scottsdale, and not know about the fastest growing and largest city in the country (square miles, not people). 

Interest rates & constructions costs are up across the country. 

Areas I like that I would consider C+ to B which should give decent cash flow are Orange Park, South Westside area near 295, Murray Hill area, San Jose, eastern area of Mandarin, East Arlington (east of 295), various pockets of the southside around University Blvd, and some others I circled in the red areas.

With this knowledge, it seems as though out-of-state investors are analyzing markets that have great job growth, high appreciation, low unemployment, low taxes, but are still "affordable" compared to standards in more expensive parts of the country.

I have experience with BRRR's, buy n holds, and flips with clients all over the country!
