The real question is how many units are being built and what does net migration look like on top of demographics.I can answer the question for my market Milwaukee, because I have been tracking these metrics locally for the last 10 years or so.

Please let me know if I can bring any value to you about the markets I've referenced.

Spending some on marketing/mailers/trying to find motivated sellers would be a better use of your money (in my opinion).I downloaded one of his "free" blueprints to building wealth flipping vacant land.

Pick a market drill deep into that market, learn the market and success will follow.
