Lexington SC/Columbia SC

[Christopher Bell]

Hey all!

My family and I recently visited Lexingston South Carolina and we really enjoyed the stay there. The area was beautiful (Near Lake Murray), Schools are great for our kids, and people were extremely friendly! I recently sold my investment properties in NJ and currently live in Maryland!

I'm looking to see what everyone thought of the rental potential in this area. I know South Carolina you need to watch out for the Investment Property Taxes at a higher rate (Almost 3x the Primary Residence Homestead Credit). Is there anything else to look out for? Any other suggestions? Any other areas around there that work for a better Investment Opportunity? 

Thanks for the help and advice!!!!!

@Christopher Bell We have a couple of great referrals for the Columbia market if you'd like to reach out to them. As far as agents go, Dustin Johns with Realty Resource Group is a great investor friendly agent. He does a lot of lake transactions, too. And for investment information, Andrew Lucas is an investor and runs REI Live there. He would also be a great resource for you.

Troy,

Thank you for taking the time! I'll reach out and try to discuss with them this week! I'm eager to learn more about that market and the opportunties it brings.
