Mine have appreciated off of the charts in the Charlotte metro market.

@Cosmo DePinto, I can provide further insight on behalf of my market.

Micro-markets are like checkerboards across larger markets. 

Seems like the new on line marketing methods  Section 8 is the new shinny object..

It works...but any marketing works, it just depends. 

Lots of opportunity to find mismanaged multis as well where the older mom and pop landlord has rents way below market and can come in and increase NOI just by getting units up to market rent and maybe doing some cosmetic rehabs as tenants move out.Value add multi is what I prefer and think works best here but that's with me being here boots on the ground and being more active with it.

Can you please share any information on properties or markets where you are that can help guide my search?

So they used the actual rented data of these companies to compare what rentals should go for in your market.

Those states could be nearby in your market area.  

While Colorado's market can be challenging due to high prices, exploring suburbs like Colorado Springs or Pueblo, or even considering out-of-state markets in the Midwest or Southeast, can open up better cash flow opportunities.
