If you have another bigger and better investment (like a large MF deal etc) and are low on cash then cashing out makes sense.Huntsville has at least 5 years of solid growth ahead so I would definitely recommend to keep holdin 'em!

However, with such expected growth, and revitalization of the downtown area, and knowing/expecting once construction and renovations are done in late 2022, it would be tourism, more people, etc. would you invest there on the principle you want to make money long term on the property?

I know the characteristics to look for like population growth, low unemployment rate, and job growth but how do I find the city to invest in?

You will significantly stunt your growth - and possibly ruin any chance at building true wealth - if you can't figure this out.

I am thinking of expanding to hot markets where there are lot of job growth, areas like Austin, Dallas, or Tampa etc.

Columbus OH has lots of population growth and job opportunities, which is what a lot of out-of-state investors are looking for.

The main reason I ask is, when I get to the maximum amount of loans under my name, I’m pre planning what it will take to keep my growth and factoring in cashflow. 

With smaller income-properties, investors usually must make a strategic choice whether cash-flow OR growth of capital/equity is the primary goal, it is just not arithmetically probable to maximize both at the same time.You may ask yourself how you can optimize these metrics depending on the investor’s portfolio.

@AJ Panjavi Orlando is seeing tremendous growth.

Now that we are in long term rentals, I am asking for your input of any group/organization with regular meet-ups you feel have been beneficial to your own personal/business growth.
