Post: Advice: Trouble Choosing a Market

Hi Everyone, 

I am a 22 year old looking to get a headstart into REI. I feel confident in what I'm looking for as a first investment property purchase: a SFR with decent cash flow ($200-300/unit) and some added appreciation down the line would be nice. I have about $100k saved up and am having a lot of trouble finding a market. I was looking into the Dallas-Fort Worth region but the hot market there does not cash flow well despite the "speculative appreciation". I looked into a more stable cash flow market such as Indianapolis but the crime index concerns me. I know there isn't a "perfect market" but just wanted some advice for the mindset I might want to consider at my age, situation, etc. from some experienced folks?
