I don't think there are any "tools" out there to help you select a market.

I do hire designers, but I do local and they handle most if not all of the entire project not just selection.

I am assuming pics of their work, I really need to get a weekend and get up there and get it sorted and spend it interviewing people.  

When selecting tenants keeping a tenant is just as important as selecting one.  

Unfortunately she only selected “follow” and not accept request.

I like the selection that Maxwell Flooring has in Houston.

His company is Selective Real Estate and he does construction and flipping. 

I actively invest in single-family, multi-family, select syndications, and small commercial properties, and I bring that hands-on experience to every deal I work on.I joined BiggerPockets to connect with other real estate professionals, share insights, and continue learning from this knowledgeable community.

Asking about their average vacancy time, eviction approach, and how often they visit properties tells you a lot about how your experience will go.And just to be transparent, neighborhood selection matters more here than almost anywhere I’ve seen.

As the title states I'm closer to the Springfield mo area than Kansas City but the location selection doesn't give that option.
