- Ignore daily static like unemployment rates, RE price fluctuations- Focus on long term trends in choosing a market- Demographic Factors- Population Size- Focus on MSAs of at least 200,000 population or more- Population Growth Trend - Economic Diversity- Anchors- Relative Price /CAP RatesWe decided to choose two markets so we could hone in and try and not try to focus on to many.

@Brandon TurnerIf you need a photo in front of a mobile home in Issaquah for...diversity.

It is a very diverse and spread out market.

While I understand wanting diversity and the need for different voices, do we want to hear diversity on the podcasts?

I have met little more than disappointment after disappointment eating out in this town, bland boring food praised by locals brought up on little better than pig slop and sugar water.Let's talk about some other things that young people want: a flourishing art culture with deep roots in the past, good educational opportunities for their young children, diversity, proximity to other major cultural centers, natural beauty.

I love that real estate is so diverse and creative, but also makes my brain hurt.

Cities are running out of market fuel due to drenched inventory and declining home sales prices.First, I'm going to talk about why university square is high in diversity, low in cost living is ideal for new families and young students that are just getting started.

Job diversity 4.

If you look at job and population growth as well as diversity of industries, infrastructure w/DFW airport (2 major airlines HQ'd there) and freeway access to major east / west and north / south freeways reaching parts of the U.S., companies are moving in at a greater clip from a positioning / leveraging standpoint.  

There are new Reg A+ funds solving this issue to a large degree, but you're unlikely to get the same deal diversity from those options.
