Although it may look good on paper, the tenant quality might not be great.

Huntsville, in particular, has strong job growth, steady appreciation, and a high demand for quality rental homes.

@Kyle LipkoRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.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.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I tell people all the time: if you can't find a quality PM in a market, don't invest in that market!

Being the highest quality locaitons in all of MS or at least central MS you get the very best tenants.. then my office staff handled the monthly collections.. so hybrid.

Built in a factory the quality is often better and cheaper than stick building out in the elements.

Are their listings detailed with good-quality photos?

Without the upside of a good neighborhood and/or quality property, I don't love it. 

I focus on quality not quantity.
