Mega Church Effects on Home Value in SFR Suburbia for Long Term Growth
Schools seem to have a great affect on a community and consequent land value. Whether correlation or causation, I can't say exactly (http://blog.redfin.com/blog/2013/09/paying-more-fo...)
I found this humorous article about TOO MANY churches hurting a city: http://articles.latimes.com/2006/jul/31/nation/na-....
Does anyone have experience or anecdotal evidence about Mega Churches effects on surrounding land values (net positive or negative) in suburban, SFR neighborhoods?
