New construction of aparment buildings show signs of growth?
So I live in the Elgin area( Illinois) and seen more and more apartment and commercial buildings popping up. Elgin is near areas that contain malls, and recreational activities. However it is a poorer area compared to those around it. From these new buildings popping up, is it safe to think prices in the Elgin area are going up? And is it worthwhile to invest while hoping more and more investors come into this area?
