Hi @Joshua Manier,**I'm not affiliated with any of the companies mentioned**Your strong financial profile and low LTV puts you in a great position!

@Surya S KumaresanYou're in a great position to grow your real estate portfolio in Atlanta, a market with strong appreciation and rental demand.

Indy is a strong market with a great mix of cash flow and appreciation potential, plus it’s very landlord-friendly.

Macro Trends vs. 1% RuleThe 1% rule is handy but not a dealbreaker if macro trends like population and job growth are strong.

One of the articles on here discusses Warner Robins as a strong market, so we’ve been looking there some. 

Cashflow isn't easy here but appreciation is super strong.

The market you are looking for should be one with strong population and job growth. 

It is still going to take some time but the tenant pool will only continue to get strong in this market on the other hand as you may know OP is a stable market and at times a more passive market when it comes to PM. love to connect with both of you and just have some really good chat on the past, present and future of Chicago RE. 

Dealing with non-paying tenants in a state like Massachusetts, which has strong tenant protections, is no small task.

It sounds like the agent you worked with may not have been acting in your best interest, and I would strongly recommend finding another agent.
