In a market that is active you will have 5 to 10 players that will buy 90% of anything that comes up that is remotely a deal..

If the property is close to White River Pkwy (just across the river) you'll find better tenants and higher rent.

Just out of curiosity, why those markets?

I would like to learn of any potential red flags in the assumptions but most importantly just go over the deal with a fine-tooth comb to confirm my own understanding of the deal. 

Hi @Joseph BaenaHere is a tip for you as you get into RE investingThis website is a great reference point for figuring out what each area is like. https://www.areavibes.com/It gives you a total LIVABILITY score for each street and zip code.
