From my experience, cities like Greenville, Columbia, Augusta, Huntsville, Chattanooga, and Jacksonville offer strong house-hacking opportunities with growing job markets, solid rental demand, and affordable multi-family options.

@Todd Anderson totally agree on finding a mentor in the market to learn from.

Market forces are pushing and pulling but not a source of anything breaking.

Hi Kedric, welcome and I'm in the Atlanta Market.

The "best market" is less about the market per se and more about the deal you're able to find in my opinion.

There is no one size fits all answer for this question, market to market, and property to property are all different. 

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

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

I live in a very expensive market (Seattle, WA) and I am looking to invest out of State.

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