All in all, I have found travel medical professionals (not just nurses - think x-ray technicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, etc) to be great guests who cause no issues and always pay on time and often extend their contracts and thus, their leases.

All of this makes Huntsville/Madison County the #10 Hottest US Rental Markets.Local employers with 1000+ employees (in descending order).US Army, Huntsville Hospital, NASA, Huntsville City Schools, Boeing, Dynetics, SAIC, Madison County Schools, City of Huntsville, Northrop Grumman, University of Alabama in Huntsville, ADTRAN, Polaris, Toyota, Hexagon, Alabama A&M University, Crestwood Medical Center, Madison County Commission, Science and Engineering Services (SES), Madison City Schools, AT&T Alabama

They have horses and other farm animals and have been exemplary in maintaining the property and managing minor repairs independently.A recent search revealed zero similar acreage properties available for rent, underscoring the uniqueness of this rental home.

Was it an “a ha” moment you felt was worth sharing to a bunch of medical students?

I have approved people in the 500's because it's student loans that has brought their score down (I ignore medical and student loans).

What unique considerations might there be?

Both have their own unique advantages and can offer great potential for real estate investing.

@Kermaury Musgrove no first-time story, but some education:)Every market is unique, but the Midwest markets have a lot of similarities and are way different than the market in California.In Metro Detroit, we rank all the suburban cities and the City of Detroit Neighborhoods as Class A, B, C & D.Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

They undoubtedly overpaid for the homes which were bought by the least savy homebuyers who have now got into trouble/overleveraged and need to cash by selling a portion of their equity in the first place, thus NADA's positions will likely fall faster than the overall market as they have this intrinsic flaw of no price discovery in their methodology. so either NADA makes out like a bandit by fleecing stupid Americans (not a unique business model) or NADA bought overpriced homes near the PEAK, since they just started business in late 2021, and they will incinerate your investment better than Cathie Wood, I'm getting my popcorn ready to watch this %&*@show   :)
