Memphis is THE place known for transportation & logistics!

Hi Ravi - while it'd be helpful to know more, like the others have said, I can tell you a bit about the downtown housing market and if you're looking for something in the greater Hartford, you'll have to give us more detail :) The downtown residential market is at 98% occupied and there's a lot of activity which suggests positive growth and more bodies on the street between the new public transportation system, two university moves into the central business district, the development of Downtown North with the new baseball team...the Yard Goats...please don't hold that against us, and a lot more residential units coming online in the next year - which is actually a positive for those people considering investing in residential because in urban environments like Hartford, residential markets follow an odd trend where the greater the supply of housing, the more greater the demand.

side, For STR, I would personally look around the university (MTSU) area (graduations, games, weddings, etc), or the Medical Center Pkwy area (transportation to Nashville, corporate Nissan/Amazon, medical personnel. 

Ford tells them that once he perfects the manufacturing of the horseless carriage, it will be the best mode of transportation ever invented.

On top of that you have the added inconvenience of needing transportation (another cost) just to get there and it ends up taking more of your time up just to get a shirt washed.So I still think that even with tenants having to pay to do laundry per load, it's still an added convenience that should increase how attractive your property is to tenants.

As a quick example, I just bought 3 acres of land for $38,000 at a NYS Dept. of Transportation auction.

I could argue that I answer lots of questions with in-depth responses, have done a podcast, a book launch interview, flew to Denver paying my own transportation and hotel expenses and spoke for 3 hours at the conference (not to mention the time involved in preparation), and have almost 2,000 posts with just as many votes, and answer several emails a week from other members - all at my expense.

Transportation can be good or bad debt.  

FYI, You should be aware that it is a federal crime to knowingly harbor an illegal immigrant, pursuant to 8 USC title 1324 (A)(III)"Any person who - knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, conceals, harbors, or shields from detection, or attempts to conceal, harbor, or shield from detection, such alien in any place, including any building or any means of transportation;"

This is why it is important to purchase in the right location - Education, Amenities, Employment, Transportation, are within reach.
