Birmingham beginning to disappoint

Ryan Boltman
Posted

Well folks, i have more than enough capital saved, pre approved with 3 lenders...so have money to burn. Reached out to 4 Agents in Birmingham and only 1 got back to me with minimal options. Not due to pricing but inventory. Seems properties are flying off the shelves there!!! 

So...

1. i don't want to overpay where i think thats the way things are going. 2. Agents are less responsive obviously due to the lack of inventory. 3. if prices keep going up, the ROI wont make sense....


I am looking for some advice here and especially around the idea of shifting my focus in other cities... Any thoughts and ideas perhaps on looking elsewhere? my focus is currently 3 bed 2 bath price rage 100-200k... yes i know.. you would think it would be easy to find...

Thanks

@Alicia C. Excellent news congrats!!! I am just about to close on my Calera SFH in the next few weeks. Agreed seems like an up an coming area. Hopefully I get it rented quickly.... once rented it's on to the next property!! 💪
