I’m looking to invest out of state and am trying to narrow down different cities to BRRRR SFH as outlined in David Greene’s book.

How do you narrow down the list of potential deals without physically seeing what needs to be fixed in each home?

Set up automatic emails on Zillow for that area or multiple areas if you're still narrowing it down.  

This will help a lot with narrowing down my search and understanding of the area a little more.

While I think it's fine to look at potential tenants' social media, completing a tenant background check as well as credit check will help you narrow down your potential candidates.

I'd like to learn a little more before narrowing that down, but I do have some ideas getting into small multi-family.

which seems to be 10% Coc with 20 to 25% down.2. they are priced out of west coast marketsSo they decide they are going to launch out in search of filling their criteria bucket with 10% COC and were does that happen it does not happen on the West coast Generally speaking. and there are no turn key companies on the west coast. so there is a whole industry in the mid west and rust belt and deep south markets for locals to buy rehab and then sell rental properties to those on the coasts or high priced markets.. and they go in search of this CRITERIA of 10% or greater return.. and where the market is now this puts you in almost all markets in C/D class.. you can buy nice B and A in any of the markets but they are not going to meet the return criteria investors set for themselves. 

My family is from Oregon, (having been born there myself) but I actually took up reading and read history about Stalin and Hitler and Mao and having seen the logical outcome, and the extreme violence it leads to, rejected it because of it's narrow, rigid and full of deceptions. 

Most investors will ask you it narrows down to time. 

1st thing you want to do is narrow your focus.
