Expensive markets are often desirable because many people want to live there, driving up demand and prices.Reno, NV, for instance, is a market that benefits from diversified employment sectors, including tech manufacturing, hospitality, and recreation.

I randomly picked three OTC parcels in an Arizona county and did some basic research.

LTRs with long term conventional financing and standard management aren't really cash flowing anywhere right now. sure, there are lower cost markets that look better on paper, but there are costs associated with those supposedly cheap markets as well - deferred maintenance, more challenging tenant base, higher cost turnovers as a percentage of the rent.2. i wouldn't pick a random market thousands of miles away based solely on statistics or numbers. 

Hi, any fix and flippers in here picking up at least 1 project a month?

We got lucky the county picked up the waste dump pickup and dump fees.

Hey all, I just picked up a four plex in the mid-del area (just outside of OKC).

Which neighborhoods should I not touch and which ones are ripe for the picking?

I've learned over the years of being a landlord that I have to pick my battles.

You picked a great community to join.. have you checked out local comps to gauge the market vibe yet?

So based on that I guess I'd have to pick Detroit.
