I wanted to open a market-focused thread for members following Connected Investors Reviews, Questions & Updates Forum. Which cities look strongest right now for investors, and what makes them stand out in terms of pricing, demand, rent potential, growth, or risk?
This is a great topic because city-level advice is useful, but the block-by-block or neighborhood-by-neighborhood details matter even more.
I would also look at long-term convenience, not just price, because access, traffic, safety, and day-to-day livability affect value a lot.
A lot of the answer depends on neighborhood-level differences, so comparing several areas side by side usually helps.
Local costs beyond the headline price often make a big difference, especially taxes, insurance, fees, and commuting expenses.
