Most of the largest cities in the Midwest, includingChicago, Detroit, Indianapolis and Minneapolis, rank in the middle of the pack.Geographic and infrastructure advantages support leasing by small manufacturingand distribution tenants in these locations.However, limited population growth, or in some casespopulation losses, result in less robust leasing among smaller tenants in localconstruction trades.

In fact, since you're touting your conference, I was just at one of the largest STR conferences in TN this past February and wouldn't you know it....there were other successful real estate investors there who practice IBC!

@Klejdi Banka College Station has a lot to offer with a solid economy backed by Texas A&M, the largest university in the US (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_public_u...)But similar to @Shawn McCormick comment about Orlando, we dont see 1% deals very often.

Get renters out of single family home neighborhoods that are meant for homeowners and back in to large apartment buildings owned by the aforementioned largest landlords. 

Smaller industrial properties have maintainedimpressive occupancy rates and rising rents for several years, and in recentmonths they have increasingly stood out as one of the best-performingcategories of commercial real estate.To learn which U.S. markets have the most acuteshortages of smaller industrial space, CoStar ranked the 60 largest U.S.markets based on the composite scores of three criteria: current availabilityrates for industrial buildings smaller than 50,000 square feet; the mediannumber of months on the market of 10,000-25,000-square-foot industrial spacesleased in the past 12 months; and the median number of months on the market ofindustrial spaces smaller than 10,000 square feet leased in the past 12 months.

A diverse set of locales comprise the 20 markets withthe highest availability rates and leasing times for small industrial spaces.The four largest Texas markets, Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston and SanAntonio, all rank in this group.However, most of these 20 markets with higheravailability rates and longer leasing timelines than most locales still havelimited inventories of small industrial spaces available for lease.
