The weekly "Brokers Tour" in a given area typically happens prior to the first open house, at least in my area. 

Start going to tour local REIA meetings and networking.  

I was touring a new build with a client last year and the salesman there told me he had an investor buy three of his lower priced new models since he could charge the top rate for rent.   

Like you my father was also a Vietnam Veteran and served two tours there. 

I have tried this one but people have a hard time giving me specific details2) Having a good GC and paying him/her to do my repair estimates3) Hosting bus tours to my properties under contractI have more in the works but I am open to your suggestions and feedback.

You might also check out San Luis Potosi and their waterfalls and Old World European sections.There are a lot of options out there. 

Does anyone here have a system set up like OpenDoor for allowing potential tenants to view a vacant unit?  Where an electronic lockbox (with ability to remotely change code)  is just left at the door?  I was thinking ...

who's touring you around NWI?

I'd definitely like to meet face to face with the turnkey provider and see inventory up close and personal.Daniel, depending on the area you select, it would likely be advantageous if you met and toured with more than one provider on your visit.  

It's all for show for the bus tours.
