Johnson City, TN Market
Does anyone have some insights on the Johnson City, TN market? More specifically, the best neighborhoods to invest in, and which ones to avoid. Also, if you have any recommendations for realtors, contractors, loan offices, etc. please let me know!
I moved here in March, and plan on buying property starting Feb 2021 (I didn't file taxes in 2018, so I have to wait till next year to have 2 years worth of returns). I plan on using a VA loan to buy a multi-family property in Feb, conventional (20% down) loan for a second property shortly after, and an FHA loan early 2022 (to take advantage of the lower interest).

@Daniel Jarzynski I’ve been in the Kingsport for almost 2 years and am part of a multifamily meetup group that meets every two weeks at Sabores in downtown Johnson City. We also started doing a Facebook live stream recently as well due to Covid. You can find more info at:

I’ve got property in Durham, NC and am an LP on a multi family property in Fayetteville, NC. I’m currently interested in acquiring more property in NC as well as in the Johnson City area.
In my opinion the areas between Kingsport and Johnson City are expanding and would be a good place to look. Especially south of i81 along i26 closer to Johnson City. Boone’s creek, Grey, and state of franklin area.
I’m happy to speak more if you want.
