But, the people looking in our neighborhood (about 1.3 mi from our house) are all older.  

However, I have no idea how to choose from the remaining cities, it seems there are a lot of potential options:- Midwest - Michigan (ie: Grand Rapids) seems to have options, also seeing Columbus Ohio and Indianapolis coming up- Reno - I've seen mentioned several times on here- Pittsburgh / Philadelphia / Twin Cities - All mentioned as lower cost to get started, and seem to be experiencing growthI'd ideally like to find a place that has strong potential for future growth, a diversified economy, and I don't mind living in (being close to nature would be a plus). 

While this brokerage would start in Ann Arbor, I would want it to expand to all of Southeast Michigan, then statewide, and ultimately nationwide.As flippers/investors, would you be interested in listing with this brokerage?

Places like Tampa, FL, Boise, ID, Asheville, NC, Detroit, MI, and Columbus, OH are seeing growth in tourism and demand, making them great options for STR investments. 

I am doing projects in Michigan, Ohio and Chicagoland.
