If you are looking for more appreciation and can afford to cover a few hundred dollars a month of negative cash flow then I'd recommend looking at Gilbert.

But I'd happily help you compare or verify if there are certain features or metrics you find most important!

I'd recommend MyRental.com for tenant screening.

I'd also like to plug Bigger Pockets because of what you said, but also because of the education you can get here on the website.  

I'd really appreciate any and all helpful advice.

I’d be happy to answer any questions you have about analyzing markets or getting started.Most importantly, choose a market that aligns with your long-term goals.Wishing you much success!

I’d be happy to connect and share ideas on building a solid plan, like assembling your CORE 4 (agent, lender, property manager, contractor) to help streamline your journey.

I'd give your new PM the contact info of the old PM to have them get the keys/leases/tenant contact info and to take over.

I'd be happy to give you advice or refer you to someone. 

Hi Ofir,I personally like AL (Huntsville, Tuscaloosa) and I'd say OH markets are also popular.Also there are programs out there that can do higher LTV with no FICO.
