I may have been a little harsh on Dayton but I do prefer metropolitan areas with stronger economic and demographic fundamentals. 

Such increases were transitory since the economic fundamentals of these markets have not fundamentally changed.

Markets are hot and cold but the fundamentals never change location, jobs and potential to grow.

Look for areas with strong economic fundamentals, such as job growth, population growth, and low vacancy rates.

When considering OOS investing, look for markets with strong economic fundamentals, such as job growth, population growth, and low unemployment rates.

As for other cities to consider for cash flow, some popular ones include:- Indianapolis, IN- Kansas City, MO/KS- Birmingham, AL- Memphis, TN- Atlanta, GA- Jacksonville, FL- Columbus, OHIt's important to thoroughly research any city you're interested in to make sure it has strong economic fundamentals and a stable rental market.

@Michele Velazquez The markets that you mention have very little in common with some being much stronger than others in terms of economic and demographic fundamentals so it makes me question if you have set a clearly defined objective and criteria.

I want copies of the lease and estopple letters from you so I know what I'm getting into and I want to be sure the partial month's rent and security deposits are credited to me at closing.But, fundamentally, I'd never pay anything close to $300K for $1500 in rent.You will usually get the highest price by fixing the place up to homeowner standards and selling to an owner occupant.
