@Sean Doyle - Toledo is the only city I operate in.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.DM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

Our buildings are in high growth markets in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania. 

Rare do I hear of recommendations but I do hear people asking.I would think in any big city you think about, a visit to a local NARPEM meeting or 2-3 visits would be a great idea. 

Still waiting on payments to start with the city of Memphis. it was supposed to be October 1st but I haven't seen anything yet.  

One is in National City, another in Grant Hill and last one in Fairmount Village.

Pairing that with relationship-building will help you uncover off-market opportunities and find local experts who can guide you.For meetups, here are a few ideas:Indianapolis Real Estate Investors Association (Indy REIA): They have a mix of virtual and in-person events and are a good starting point for networking with other investors in the Indy market.Louisville Real Estate Investors Group (REIG): A similar organization for the Louisville market, with educational and networking opportunities.Check out BiggerPockets Meetups: Many cities have local meetups organized by investors active on BiggerPockets, and they often include virtual options.Facebook Groups: Look for local investing groups like "Indianapolis Real Estate Investors" or "Louisville REI."

We haven't even discussed carriers raising their rates due to their reinsurance carriers increasing their rates, your building locations (CA, FL, NY, coastal counties/cities, etc.), how litigious is your state, your own loss history/ratio as an individual investor, the carrier's overall loss ratio in a certain state/area, the deductibles you've elected, etc. 

I would check some of the sub markets 15-40 minutes from Raleigh city center that still benefits from the Raleigh economy.- Everyone's situation and goals are different but I would assume there are a few quality markets within an hour of where you are located in Florida that would check a lot of your boxes. 

I have noticed a lot of investors are seeking out cities that are offering lower priced lots and simply adding a Modular or Manufactured and capturing a very nice cash flow.There is a new trend starting in Florida and in other states where an investor buys a piece of land or lot and add a 'Tiny Home".
