Might the Midwest “Startup Surge” Gas Value Progress?

Dave:Would you like regular returns? The Midwest startup surge is altering actual property eternally. At this time we’re exploring why the Midwest is attracting consideration for startup development, strong job markets, and resilient housing, all whereas remaining comparatively reasonably priced. You all know this should you hear repeatedly, however I like a variety of Midwest markets for the basics. I make investments there myself and repeatedly have a look at information for brand new alternatives. And there are numerous Midwest cities fueling job development and tech growth whereas nonetheless providing a number of the most reasonably priced housing within the nation. However is that this momentum only a short-term buzz or is it a sport changer that would reshape the true property investing marketplace for years to come back? I’m Dave Meyer, and in at this time’s episode of On the Market, I’m joined by Midwest actual property skilled Dan Nelson and our in-house analyst, Austin Wolff to interrupt down all of the numbers. Let’s get into it. Dan Nelson, welcome to On the Market. Thanks for being right here.

Dan:Thanks. Yeah, it’s good to be right here.

Dave:Nicely, I’m glad to have you ever right here as a result of Austin and I have a look at these things very academically. I do spend money on the Midwest, nevertheless it’s good to have a local and who’s somebody on the bottom speaking about these Midwest markets. So respect that. And Austin, as all the time, thanks for coming again.

Austin:Comfortable to be right here.

Dave:You kind of put collectively this record for us on markets that you simply like, that you simply suppose provide good potential, good fundamentals. Inform us the way you went about selecting the markets that we’re going to be discussing at this time.

Austin:Yeah, so there’s a web site referred to as midwest startups.com and so they prefer to rank all the completely different kind of cities and metros within the Midwest for a way pleasant they’re to startups. And why I believe that’s essential is as a result of if a metropolis is pleasant to startups, theoretically, they need to even be pleasant to companies. Folks could need to go there, companies may be rising. I imply, that was the kind of first information set that I checked out. I truly appeared on the high 5 cities that they ranked that had been finest for startups. After which I checked out all the completely different underlying fundamentals inside these cities to see how they may stack up for particularly out-of-state actual property traders. However traders in these cities as properly would possibly profit from this info too.

Dave:Bought it. And what does that imply, startup pleasant? Are you able to simply inform us what a number of the metrics are and inform us slightly bit extra in regards to the underlying insurance policies or local weather in these cities that make it enticing for companies?

Austin:So first variable that we have a look at is the precise variety of startups which are began every year throughout the metropolis. If there’s quite a bit that’s good, if there’s not quite a bit, perhaps not so good. We additionally have a look at the college system simply because sometimes a enterprise needs educated staff. So if companies are round a variety of superb faculties, they’ve an excellent workforce to drag from. We additionally have a look at authorities assist after which the tax local weather as properly.

Dave:Nice. So let’s get into it. What’s our first market right here?

Austin:Yeah, so I wished to start out on the high. The primary metropolis that startups ranks as the most effective metropolis for startups is Chicago.

Dave:Yeah, I heard this. Yeah, we had been speaking about planning the present and I heard this, that Chicago is primary, which is among the major causes we’re bringing on Dan, who’s an agent in Chicago. So we’ll get his absorb only a minute, however what are the ideas that you simply see right here that make Chicago a fascinating place for companies and maybe for investing within the Midwest?

Austin:So Chicago ranks primary by way of variety of startups in addition to variety of exits. So in case you have a startup there, simply statistically you’re extra more likely to have an exit in Chicago than different cities within the Midwest. There’s additionally the very best variety of VCs and the very best variety of capital being invested into startups in Chicago

Dave:Out of the Midwest. Proper

Austin:Out of the Midwest, right. Sure,

Dave:Certain. Okay. And I’m curious, Dan, is that this one thing that you simply hold monitor of as an investor and as a agent in Chicago?

Dan:Yeah, there’s quite a bit about Chicago that’s distinctive, however one of many issues that occurred, I believe it was like 2012, was JB Pritzker began this venture referred to as 1871, which mainly exploded startups in Chicago. It was already a fantastic startup space, nevertheless it actually inspired VCs to come back right here, and VCs have come right here and so they’ve had extra success right here than they’ve had within the different areas. Clearly it’s extra reasonably priced. Simply as Austin stated, there’s tons of universities round Chicago. It’s additionally a spot the place should you get a school diploma, you’re very more likely to transfer to Chicago. So it’s a extremely nice hub for that.

Dave:Yeah, I imply Chicago has a lot infrastructure. I assume the factor that you simply hear about Illinois generally is that inhabitants is declining. Is that one thing that issues you, Dan, or that you simply discover in your underwriting or your investing?

Dan:So there are some things about Chicago that scare folks exterior of the town make investments, and that’s one among them. The fact is the folks which are transferring out of Chicago typically are older and transferring to hotter shoppers, and there’s extra older folks than there are youthful folks proper now. So any metropolis the place it’s a colder space and so they’re migrating out, you’re going to see that. The opposite factor is almost all of individuals which are transferring in are faculty educated and nearly all of the folks which are transferring out will not be. So you’re seeing a brand new rental base that has extra money, that typically has extra white collar jobs than what’s been the case in Chicago. So that they’re keen to pay extra and so they’re on the lookout for larger models than what folks did up to now.

Dave:Alright, and also you stated there are different issues that scare folks off. I think about there’s a variety of narrative about crime in Chicago. Is that one other one?

Dan:That’s an enormous one. Once I come on a podcast like this and I speak about this, traders in Chicago get so mad at me as a result of it’s a secret. So many individuals are afraid to come back Chicago, they don’t understand what a fantastic atmosphere is and a variety of locations within the Midwest. So yeah, should you simply have a look at uncooked numbers, it’s an enormous metropolis. After all there’s a variety of crime, however whenever you have a look at per capita, it doesn’t rank very excessive. While you hearken to a number of the information, you’ll suppose individuals are driving up and down the road taking pictures Uzi out the window to everybody. And anyplace the place there’s extra poverty, there’s extra crime, and the place there’s much less poverty, there’s much less crime.

Dave:Yeah, that is sensible. And Austin, are you able to inform us slightly bit about a number of the main industries which are driving a number of the fundamentals in Chicago?

Austin:I would love to level out finance as one of many main industries. Chicago is a large finance hub and there are a variety of nice jobs in finance in Chicago. Will not be the main trade, nevertheless it’s actually high three.

Dave:Dan, in your expertise in Chicago, what’s the transfer for traders? What are methods that work at this time?

Dan:Yeah, so Chicago is a humorous place as a result of we don’t have a variety of emptiness. Our emptiness price is forty fifth within the nation for a metropolis that’s third or fourth in inhabitants, however there’s nonetheless an honest quantity of provide. So after I speak to folks in Chicago, they’re native, they’ll say, man, there’s nothing in the marketplace. Once I speak to somebody from California or wherever exterior, they go, oh my God, I can’t consider what number of properties in the marketplace. How are there properties which have 45, 60 days in the marketplace? What’s mistaken with them? So there’s numerous alternative right here, significantly should you focus in that two to 4 unit house as a result of Chicago was arrange a spot for immigrants to maneuver right here and lease. There was no concept of possession. Initially when Chicago was constructed, you had been going to maneuver right here and also you had been going to lease.So that they constructed all these two to 4 unit properties. But additionally after World Battle ii, all these folks got here again and other people had single household properties and all these troopers got here to Chicago and there’s no place to take action they began renting out their basement. So that they have these kind of selfmade ADUs everywhere, however they’ve been tearing these down in areas which are gentrifying. So that you would possibly go, oh, they’re taking a single household dwelling and so they’re changing with one other single household dwelling, however the brand new Sam household dwelling doesn’t have somebody renting within the basement. So we’re consistently dropping rental as part of it. So if you will get into that market and get that two to 4 unit property, you’ve got a novel property with a really low emptiness price.

Dave:Typically talking, is it potential to realize not less than break even cashflow with a few of these offers?

Dan:Yeah, I imply all the things is dependent upon the place you look and there’s that lever that I do know you speak about on a regular basis, Dave, which is would you like straight on cashflow or would you like straight on appreciation? And each stage of that exists in Chicago. Chicago is a metropolis of neighborhoods and each neighborhood has its personal distinctive factor. So there are areas the place it’s very easy to cashflow, after which there are different areas the place there are straight appreciation performs and most of the people type of choose that center floor the place they’re going to cashflow slightly bit at first, however over time they’re going to see that enhance dramatically, however they’re additionally going to get that appreciation on the property.

Dave:Nice. Nicely thanks for explaining. I simply suppose it’s essential as a result of a variety of instances once we speak in regards to the Midwest, the attraction from many individuals is the potential for cashflow and completely agree that it’s as much as every individual what their technique is, the place they need to fall on that spectrum of cashflow versus appreciation. However a variety of the explanation we’re speaking about Midwest markets at this time is as a result of it’s arduous to seek out money on the southeast and the west and the Midwest, typically talking, gives higher alternatives for that. And it feels like Chicago might need these choices developing extra on why Midwest markets are heating up. We’ll be proper again. Welcome again to On the Market. I’m Dave Meyer right here with Dan Nelson discussing all of the methods the Midwest is booming. Alright, Austin, it seems to be like a second market right here in your record is Minneapolis. Inform us about it.

Austin:So Minneapolis, on the subject of startups particularly, it ranked quantity two and it truly had a variety of similarities to Chicago. It had a variety of variety of startups, a variety of variety of exits and vc, a variety of capital there. By way of the tax local weather, it’s not so pleasant. It’s truly comparable or worse than Chicago, which is fairly attention-grabbing and just like Chicago, should you have a look at the metro space, not the precise metropolis of Minneapolis or St Paul, however the broader metro space, the gathering of counties that make up this space, it has nonetheless skilled basically job loss and inhabitants loss. Not by a lot, nevertheless it’s nonetheless not on the peak the place it was in 2019 and perhaps January of 2020. So I discover that attention-grabbing, however what me much more is the general appreciation in Minneapolis is definitely greater over the previous 5 years than Chicago for the metro space, not the precise metropolis itself. I believe Chicago had a 27% median value enhance over the MSA as an entire, whereas Minneapolis had a 36% median value enhance over the MSA as an entire. So I discovered that to be fairly attention-grabbing. I truly don’t know why it might have the next appreciation than Chicago, however that’s actually one thing to check out.

Dave:Alright, properly I imply Minneapolis to me, it’s a kind of sneaky markets that has all these big firms. I believe goal’s primarily based out of there three M’S primarily based out of there. There’s a variety of Fortune 500 firms which are primarily based out of Minneapolis, and in order that mixed with startups, I can see job development happening there. Now you stated that tax state of affairs is worse in Minneapolis, is that simply company taxes?

Austin:Yeah, it is among the least pleasant states on the subject of taxes for firms.

Dave:What in regards to the state of affairs with revenue taxes or property taxes? Dan, you would possibly know this, however I believe Chicago has tremendous excessive property taxes, proper?

Dan:Nicely, it is dependent upon the way you have a look at it. So my reply isn’t any. If you happen to’re shopping for a single household dwelling, then you definitely’re going to see fairly excessive property tax, significantly should you enhance the property, the town type of places their thumb on the dimensions for 2 to 4 unit house owners as a result of they know that you simply’re simply going to move it on to the renter. So that they hold them artificially low. Now you must combat your taxes to know that you may combat your taxes each three years in Chicago, however you’ll have a variety of success should you personal a two and 4 unit property. I’ve had mine go down as a lot as half. Oh, wow. Yeah, so there’s numerous alternative there, however most individuals don’t. So that they don’t perceive alternative they’ve. However should you had a single household dwelling and a multi-unit sitting proper subsequent to one another and so they had been just about the identical property, the taxes on the only household dwelling are going to be greater even than a 4 unit property.

Dave:So Austin, do you’ve got any sense, I do know you don’t make investments there your self, however from what I perceive, Minneapolis is a reasonably costly market, significantly by Midwestern requirements. Is that this a spot that you may get cashflow? What’s the transfer for traders?

Austin:Simply primarily based on the median home value and the rents there, it’s arguably going to be slightly tougher to seek out cashflow in Minneapolis than different Midwest cities, however the appreciation was slightly greater as properly. So yeah, arduous to say, however appreciation’s going to be slightly greater than cashflow, let’s simply say that.

Dave:Alright, properly, there clearly are traders who need to focus totally on appreciation, so Minneapolis could possibly be a great marketplace for that. Dan, I do know you’re in Chicago, however do you’ve got any ideas on the Minneapolis market generally?

Dan:Yeah, so the factor that Midwestern cities have in frequent is that there’s numerous land and there’s only a few massive cities. So individuals are drawn to these larger cities. Even should you’re in Kansas, you’re going to be drawn to Wichita, which is a smaller metropolis in comparison with different issues. Or Kansas Metropolis, you’re going to be drawn by that. And in Minneapolis it’s the identical factor. You’re surrounded by a variety of plain states. So a part of the explanation you’re seeing that appreciation is lots of people have moved there from the smaller cities. There’s nonetheless a restricted quantity of property in Minneapolis in comparison with one other Midwestern sized city.

Dave:Yeah. Two issues I need to point out too is lots of people I believe after they have a look at information for markets, have a look at state stage migration and stuff, which to me is totally ineffective. It doesn’t actually matter, and you need to be taking a look at particular person markets. For instance, in Chicago, I believe I learn one thing not less than in the course of the pandemic that individuals had been leaving the market Chicago, however a variety of them had been simply transferring to the suburbs, proper? Exterior of Chicago. That is true of a variety of locations. You see this in New York too. Persons are saying, oh, individuals are leaving New York, however then the suburbs of New York are actually proper now the most well liked housing markets within the nation. And so that you must have a look at particular person dynamics. It’s not simply what’s happening within the particular person metropolis. So I believe that’s most likely, to Dan’s level, a few of what’s happening in Minneapolis is that there are locations that people who find themselves transferring from different locations within the Midwest there.The opposite factor that’s attention-grabbing, I don’t know an excessive amount of about it, however I do know St. Paul, that is proper throughout the way in which from Minneapolis, did implement lease controls. And so from what I’ve heard, that may be a a lot much less favorable if you wish to be in this sort of normal space. St. Paul’s a much less favorable space for landlords, whereas Minneapolis is a little more landlord pleasant. All proper. Let’s transfer on to our third market, Indianapolis. That is one we speak quite a bit about on the present, however Austin, inform us why, in keeping with your analysis on startup and enterprise local weather, Indianapolis is within the high three.

Austin:Yeah, so Indianapolis truly has quite a bit much less massive exits than Chicago or Minneapolis, nevertheless it truly ranks primary for assist. The federal government there actually needs companies to develop in Indianapolis and Indianapolis actually is the financial engine for your complete state. The federal government may be very total enterprise pleasant. That being stated, the tax atmosphere, quantity two, finest tax atmosphere within the Midwest. General, these curious primary was Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Indianapolis as a metro space has skilled inhabitants development, 6% inhabitants development over the previous 5 years and 9% job development over the previous 5 years. And should you simply have a look at the town, the town has truly seen a inhabitants loss. However like we had been saying earlier, should you have a look at all the outer suburbs, they’ve all grown. I’ve heard this being referred to as because the donut impact, the place folks begin to depart the inside metropolis and so they go for the outer suburbs, and there are extra jobs being added into these outer suburbs. Like Carmel, for instance, is including a variety of finance and insurance coverage jobs in that place particularly. So there are much less startups there and the college system isn’t nearly as good as Chicago, however we now have Purdue College about an hour away from Indiana. So a variety of good aerospace, a variety of good arduous tech training happening on this particular market.

Dave:Indianapolis, the good factor is that it’s comparatively reasonably priced. The median dwelling value right here is 275,000, 150 grand lower than the nationwide median. So there’s a variety of issues that individuals like. Dan, do you’ve got any ideas on Indy?

Dan:So I grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana and I’m in Indianapolis, one other sizzling market. Yeah, yeah, completely. What’s additionally occurred in Indianapolis, which I’m positive Austin has seen too, it’s type of a sports activities mecca. So the NCA’s headquartered, a variety of issues are headquartered. Additionally they, there was a city proper exterior Indianapolis referred to as Carmel that sued for the appropriate to not enable Airbnbs and the state stated, no, no, it’s your land. You are able to do no matter you need with it. And that’s type of what Indiana is, is like, it’s your house, you do what you need with it. So there’s a variety of freedom in that

Dave:Space. They’ve quite a bit happening there. So yeah, it’s undoubtedly a really attention-grabbing market. It’s one among these markets that you simply consistently see as quickest rising within the Midwest, and there’s quite a bit happening there. My query all the time about a spot like Indianapolis, is there constraints on provide? Is it simply going to continue to grow out and out and out and out? And for me as an investor, that makes it tougher to determine the place to spend money on a market like that, however I’m positive individuals who perceive the market with extra nuance than I do can work out the place to purchase. And even should you’re an out of state investor, should you work with a great investor pleasant agent and dedicate your self to studying it, I’m positive you may determine it out as properly. All proper. We do must take a fast break, however after this we’ll come again with extra Midwest markets proper after this. Welcome again to On the Market, we’re right here with Austin Wolff and Dan Nelson speaking about good Midwest markets, not less than in keeping with startups and job development. And the way in which Austin has achieved a few of his evaluation. We’ve talked to date about Chicago, Minneapolis and Indianapolis. Austin, what’s our fourth market?

Austin:We bought Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Dave:Okay. I like Pittsburgh. I’ve talked about it quite a bit, not less than on this present and on BiggerPockets actual property. However inform me extra.

Austin:It’s very reasonably priced. It’s comparatively simpler to seek out cashflow in Pittsburgh than you could in different cities throughout America. It additionally has extra massive firms than Indianapolis, after all, much less massive firms than Chicago or Minneapolis. I don’t suppose that’s a shock to anybody, nevertheless it’s additionally ranked quantity two for its college ecosystem. Once more, Chicago’s primary. There’s a variety of educated staff popping out of the college that startups would possibly discover priceless or firms would possibly discover priceless. And once more, it’s reasonably priced. It’s truly extra reasonably priced than Indianapolis. The median dwelling value is $238,000. In the meantime, it’s skilled a 36% five-year value development. So it’s nonetheless appreciating 36% is an enormous quantity, nevertheless it may be inflated as a result of the value was comparatively low to start with, nevertheless it’s nonetheless appreciating, which is all the time good to see. The one factor I don’t like about it’s it’s basically skilled about zero inhabitants development for the reason that pandemic. In order that’s my solely ding in opposition to it, however it’s extra reasonably priced and it’s ranked quantity two so far as universities are involved. So it has a variety of execs for it as properly.

Dave:Do you know that there’s a survey that they do yearly to rank essentially the most reasonably priced housing markets on the earth? And Pittsburgh was primary final 12 months, and I believe is repeatedly primary on the earth.

Dan:Wow.

Dave:As a result of Pittsburgh, it has comparatively excessive incomes in comparison with the price of dwelling there. Like Austin stated, median dwelling value, 238,000, that’s very low cost for a big metropolis like Pittsburgh, nevertheless it’s additionally one of many kind of epicenters of robotics in america, which personally I’d guess on folks graduate with good jobs and there’s additionally good manufacturing jobs. So I believe Pittsburgh’s attention-grabbing. There’s flat inhabitants development, in order that’s all the time curious and one thing that as an investor you need to hold an eye fixed out for. However whenever you see stuff like that that there’s simply good jobs and it’s comparatively reasonably priced, that not less than intrigues me. Dan, what are your ideas on Pittsburgh?

Dan:Yeah, and Pittsburgh is a kind of sleepy cities. If you happen to’ve by no means been there, you consider it as like a metal city actually. But it surely’s an attractive space, it’s very hilly, and when folks find yourself there, they do discover it to be very enticing. And clearly you talked about Carnegie Mellon. Carnegie Mellon is a extremely distinctive college and that the majority universities are attempting to show you to be taught one thing and Carnegie Mellon is attempting to show you to suppose and construct and be artistic, and that’s why a lot innovation comes out of there.

Dave:Alright, so that’s our fourth market that we went by. Austin. Inform us in regards to the fifth.

Austin:Yeah, quantity 5, we now have Columbus, Ohio Basic, clearly. Yeah, many traders love Columbus, Ohio. It’s reasonably priced. It’s comparatively straightforward to seek out cashflow. You’ve got a variety of massive firms transferring in. It’s truly ranked quantity 4 by way of the quantity of massive firms there. I imply, you’ve got a variety of massive tech firms constructing places of work there. We’ve a chip manufacturing plant transferring into the world, in order that’s actually enticing. What I don’t discover enticing is the tax local weather. It’s higher than Chicago or Minneapolis, nevertheless it’s ranked quantity 47 out of 64 on this record, so the underside half. However that being stated, it’s nonetheless seeing inhabitants development. It’s seeing job development is similar to Indianapolis. There are companies transferring there, and it’s nonetheless comparatively reasonably priced at, we now have a 312 median home value with a 59% appreciation over the previous 5 years. So strong fundamentals right here,

Dave:It’s reasonably priced, however I truly went there to think about investing there, and I simply discovered that the potential development was already actually baked in. That was my concern, was that we weren’t seeing the lease development and the lease costs that will justify a number of the costs. So should you’re available in the market, I’m positive you are able to do properly and if you wish to be affected person, however for me not less than, I felt like I used to be overpaying for issues there. I completely could possibly be mistaken, nevertheless it simply felt like as soon as they introduced this chip plant, folks had been simply shopping for up all the things like loopy and it felt arduous to seek out worth in Columbus, despite the fact that you’re completely proper, the basics are robust, the market’s going to develop, the financial system’s going to develop. I’m positive folks will inform me within the feedback that I’m mistaken, however that was simply my expertise that after I went to Columbus, myself, Dan, have you ever been there?

Dan:Yeah, so clearly they’ve Ohio State College,

Dave:Which is nice.

Dan:Lovely

Dave:Campus.

Dan:It’s a fantastic college and likewise lots of people keep in Columbus from the college. It’s a fantastic faculty. So that you do get these kind of younger folks beginning out. Yeah, I truly do often have any person that claims, I’ve a property in Columbus is doing nice. I’m attempting to purchase one other one. I’m probably not discover something. So that they undergo the agent finder and attain out and look in Chicago. In order that has occurred to me as

Dave:Nicely. Yeah, yeah. That’s to not say that you may’t do it simply as an out-of-state investor, I discovered it slightly bit arduous to seek out one thing. So just a few issues to think about, however once more, actually robust fundamentals there. Alright, so these are our high 5. We do have a pair different ones we simply need to point out right here shortly for folks. Austin, are you able to simply inform us shortly, we gained’t go into element what a number of the different mid-west markets are?

Austin:Yeah, quantity six by 10 work. Detroit and Arbor, Madison, Wisconsin, St. Louis and Cincinnati.

Dave:Okay. Nicely, Detroit is all the time so polarizing folks. I’ve actually by no means been so I don’t know a lot about it, nevertheless it’s tremendous polarizing. However Ann Arbor is a market that simply appears to be rising like loopy. I believe it’s one other place arduous to seek out cashflow, however there’s a lot tech funding going into that market. That’s a fantastic appreciation market. Dan, do you’ve got any ideas on any of those? 5?

Dan:Yeah, I believe Detroit is a good metropolis, however it’s difficult due to the inhabitants and what’s taking place there. However to me it’s a extremely enjoyable metropolis. However yeah, Ann Arbor is nice and likewise the world round Ann Arbor can also be a fantastic place to spend money on, not simply within the metropolis, however at the same time as you begin to go many miles exterior, there’s nice alternative there.

Dave:Superior. Nice. Nicely that’s good to know. Yeah, I’ve been investing in southern Michigan myself. I believe there’s a variety of attention-grabbing stuff there. One other instance of a state that has very low inhabitants development, however should you have a look at these pockets, they’re actually attracting a variety of younger folks in reasonably priced markets. So undoubtedly one thing to think about. Austin, any ideas on these final 5?

Austin:Yeah, the one factor that issues me in regards to the Detroit MSA and the St. Louis MSA is the inhabitants decline. However once more, there are pockets the place folks need to transfer to and there are solely so many homes inside these neighborhoods. So actual property is hyper-local. Do your analysis on which neighborhoods may be a great match for you.

Dave:Alright, properly earlier than we get out of right here, I’m going to make you every choose one among these markets. Dan, you’re not allowed to select Chicago as a result of that’s dishonest.

Dan:Okay.

Dave:Dan, what can be your choose should you weren’t in Chicago, which of those markets would you want?

Dan:Yeah, I’d give attention to Ann Arbor and it might be the southern space, not essentially proper within the middle, however round. Search for alternative on the market. While you consider Ann Arbor, the place the College of Michigan is, you consider college students, however there’s loads of people who aren’t college students there to give attention to. And should you’re on the lookout for short-term rental, I believe Indianapolis is a good place to look to.

Dave:Superior. What about you, Austin?

Austin:I’d select Indianapolis. I actually just like the 9% job development. It’s actually enticing to me.

Dave:Alright, properly I’d choose Madison, Wisconsin simply because I hear that has actually top quality of life and I consider in that and investing and by no means truly been there. However I like a variety of the basics of that market. Alright, properly Austin, thanks a lot for doing this analysis. We respect you being right here.

Austin:Comfortable to be right here. Thanks.

Dave:And Dan, thanks for diving deep into Chicago and giving us a few of your insider recommendations on being a Midwest agent. We respect it.

Dan:You guess. Completely.
