Additionally to that I am looking to expand into 3 other markets but I have boots on the ground in those areas.

Lot's of lenders will want local (boots on the ground) to feel comfortable doing a loan.  

Whether you’re looking at SFHs, duplexes, or other properties, it’s important to pair on-paper data with boots-on-the-ground knowledge to really get a sense of values.If you’re considering anything serious in Detroit, I’d recommend connecting with someone who knows the market inside and out.

The ridiculous lunacy we have done to "combat poverty" over the years of inventing a choice-of-work system. 

And if you’re ever looking for boots on the ground, I’ve got a great network of investor-savvy agents who specialize in the Austin area.I’m here if you want to talk specifics or need an extra pair of eyes on a deal you’re considering..

I would recommend finding an investor friendly agent in the area you are wanting to invest to be your boots on the ground.

Some day you are going to need it because you never know when the next recession is going to hit or the corporation decides to give you the boot...

That where your agents boots on the ground expertise comes in to land you actual deals.

And I found QBO to be awful and not intuitive at all...and I'm a CPA to boot.

Hey @Trevor Scheumann, The biggest thing to look for when visiting a new potential market is going to be to network with boots on the ground, namely property managers, highly recommended realtors and maybe a few contractors if they come from trusted sources.
