It's worth $149 (prices went up) for a year to see if it will be a good tenant source.

That area is my Favorite!!! 

@Jared FisherRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Without population growth, your rental income will lag behind inflation, requiring you to find additional sources of income.How long your rental income lasts depends on the job growth in the investment city.Non-government jobs are inherently temporary.

My favorite C/C+neighborhoods to invest in are Linden, Whitehall, Franklinton, Driving Park, and Eastmoor, to name a few. 

It is by far my favorite place and I would not think to live anywhere else except for short respites to experience other life.

However, these properties are so fun that they are by far my favorite and most enjoyable investments and they have all gone up in value with the improvements that we have made.

Furnished Finder is primarily a lead source.

There are some public sources (www.city-data.com) that can provide good baseline information.
