In the end, any of those cities I listed would be a "hot" and great market for you to invest in small multi-income properties.

@Peter Padalino - so I have an 8-unit building in scottsdale that has 1 power meter, and full of hairdressers, blasting AC, using dryers, hot water, etc etc.  

Too many people on here are full of hot air about "retiring" and think that buying homes in 4-5% interest rate environments, with unemployment at sub 4%, no recession and no market pull backs is going to last forever.

I would say the two biggest culprits are a hot market & Texas’s sky high property taxes.

I've started with performing some initial market analysis for some of the neighborhoods in my area, and trying to find a baseline for what's hot.  

I would be interested in what areas are hot and any A, B, C properties and typical cap rate type information.

Interior is being done in the gray palette as that's what hot here.Property isn't a total toad. 2 acres, 3 car garage with workshop and a full MIL apartment, which you can see on the far left of the photo.

Fort Myers's market is too hot right now.  

If you're in an hot market (i.e. easy to rent), you can get away with holding less liquidity or vice-versa.

As you know the Vegas market is hot right now and I'm fortunate to be sitting in the driver seat.
