Most times when evaluating a DSCR mortgage, market rent will come into play.

These cities are the well known, sub 100k markets in the US.

I’m looking for insights on which states allow you to list a property on the MLS as soon as you have it under contract—but before actually owning it.I know that some states have strict regulations around wholesaling and marketing equitable interest, while others allow it as long as you disclose your intent.

For my money, I'd look there and let the market bring you up.

TX market has been a popular choice for those seeking higher appreciation.

I’m not familiar with those markets, but I would suggest finding some meetups and attending as many as you can.

Now I’m looking into the Detroit and Ohio areas (Toledo, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus) since they seem to have growing populations and affordable properties under $200k as well.  

And also the local job market.

It all comes down to running the numbers based on today’s market, not past assumptions.

Aside from grass roots networking, what technology can help me find pre-market deals?
