Fortune favors the bold my friend.Good luck!

I could totally be wrong, but my guess is lenders like Sally Mae report these types of statistics on a periodic basis.

This is why the census uses metropolitan statistical areas start off at 100K.At 200K these markets have already made the transition and are dealing with urban problems rather than zoning and mindset problems of preserving a small town feel while transitioning into urban density.So "emerging" will look very different in each of these city sizes.  

Just put in big, bold letters at the top of all your applications and leases the following words:OWNER IS A LICENSED REAL ESTATE AGENT IN THE STATE OF PA.Then you're all good.

It truly started with the hunger of understand how money works, then how wealth is made, to making big and bold moves and going for it!

The exodus of the middle class could be considered a "pre-pop" of sorts and shows how it has already affected Bay Area residents.When the tech industry deflated in the late 90's, Silicon Valley high-tech industries declined about 17% according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. 

Statistics show that your mail doesn't truly gain momentum and start to pay off until the 5TH mail piece so consistency is key.

I appreciate your advice and the statistic from the BP Poll.  

I have done some research on my own, looked at crime maps, called the city planning office, looked at employment numbers, rents, income statistics etc. and do plan on checking out the property as well as looking at the area while there.
