Helping evaluate locations for 1st deal
Hi,
First post on the forum so let me know If I need to move it to a more appropriate page.
I'm interested in buy-to-rent and have created a short list of six locations (see below) I want to investigate further. The next step I'd like to take is to travel to the location to 1) meet as many people in the area as possible to start building a team and 2) visit some properties.
Locations:
- Odessa / Midland, TX
- Mobile, AL
- Atlanta, GA
- Raleigh, NC
- Charlotte, NC
- OKC, OK
What questions do I need to be asking to focus my attention from these six areas to one in order to visit?
A few people have suggested evaluating the states based on how friendly they are to landlords, which seems reasonable - are there specific laws surrounding landlords / tenant relationships that should be my priority.
