I have a small team but work 3 different markets.

If you have a lot of family in OK, that can be a great place to start assessing since you have dedicated boots on the ground, as well as a reason to visit.Don't overthink the analyzing of markets when you are still figuring things out.

I don't know about other areas in TX, but I keep a close eye on Austin-SAN corridor, and I'm familiar with the market in Kyle, New Braunfels and NE San Antonio.

These cities are the well known, sub 100k markets in the US.

What was your process to lock in on that market? 

If you’re in a market where you have to spend money on roofs, or exterior paint that’s ctainly you can save up for.

Do this quickly because some counties have a time limit on when you can appeal.I recommend you research the market for:- Comparable Property Sales- Condition of your property, including anything that may affect your property's value- If you are really serious, an expert appraisal may be worth the effort.

I wanted to see what markets have both a relatively high rent-to-price ratio and high appreciation.

Marketing to a bigger market of Buyers What was the outcome?

Also, zoning and market trends matter a lot more than in residential, so it’s worth getting familiar with Tampa’s landscape.
