And even within those ranks, not many have experience with investments.

Main point is that I wouldn't rely on a review/site/ranking or anything on SM to rate a RE agent that makes a living based on personal relationships (a.k.a. reality).

I am looking to start with residential wholesaling and work my way up into the ranks of rental properties, commercial wholesaling and other large forms of investing.

You make money when you buy.We get the best leads because of a #1 ranking website that is fine tuned for conversion.

Neighborhoodscout shows Detroit’s RE appreciation 1 out of 10 for this century which is the lowest ranking).Sure with the right timing it could have appreciation in excess of inflation, but the long term appreciation has been poor.This is not to imply that investors local to Detroit cannot succeed investing in Detroit RE.  

@Derek Mitchell Thanks - I'm glad to join the ranks of Albuquerque investors.  

Many OOS investors set themselves up for failure because they don't truly take the time to understand:1) The Class of the NEIGHBORHOOD they are buying in - which is relative to the overall area.2) The Class of the PROPERTY they are buying - which is relative to the overall area.3) The Class of the TENANT POOL the Neighborhood & Property will attract - which is relative to the overall area.4) The Class of the CONTRACTORS that will work on their Property, given the Neighborhood location - which is relative to the overall area.5) The Class of the PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANIES (PMC) that will manage their Property, given the Neighborhood location and the Tenants it will attract - which is relative to the overall area.6) That a Class X NEIGHBORHOOD will have mostly Class X PROPERTIES, which will only attract Class X TENANTS, CONTRACTORS AND PMCs and deliver Class X RESULTS.7) That OOS property Class rankings are often different than the Class ranking of the local market they live.8) Class A is relatively easy to manage, can even be DIY remote managed from another state.

I look forward to joining the ranks of fellow investors here in JAX and other states.

If I were you, I would spend some time looking at school rankings, crime statistics, and other things that will tell you where the best neighborhoods are within each of those cities/towns.
