I was comparing large cities to other large cities.  

I just want to compare the real estate and stock market investment.

You can find comparable sales in 2017 and use that dollar/acre figure to arrive at the fair market value then. 

And a condo can take longer to sell when you exit compared to a detached home.

Run your own airbnb comps and see how your rates, pics, and amenities, compare to them.

That's easy compared to trying to fight and erroneous $13k water bill (a real issue we had) or an insurance policy tripling (that too).

Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

P&L, Bank Statement, DSCR etcVery common for investors to make the switch when they need to or when the cons are no longer greater than the pros compared to conventional loans.
