Why Jacksonville, Florida?
Miami, New York, and Los Angeles may be great for a night out, but they lack a certain something as real estate investment towns - profitability.
Boring is beautiful in real estate, and Jacksonville is everything the flashy cities aren’t. It’s well-priced, full of jobs, and it’s a highly attractive lifestyle city.
There is no other major city where hard-working families can live along the warm subtropical waters of the Atlantic for under $100,000. For real estate investors there is no better place, as Jacksonville has an abundance of properties that produce nation-leading cash-flow.
However, it takes more than just low price to make a great investment market. The city must be strong in all 5 key market drivers:
1.Affordability
2.Economic Growth
3.Population Growth
4.Desirability
5.Supply and Demand
6.Jacksonville rocks at each of these, which is a lot more than we can say for the merely cheap markets. It’s the perfect combination of high cash-flow with enormous equity upside.
7.Jacksonville is a city with a strong economic past, present, and future, but don’t take our word for it.
8.Take the word of all the major think tanks, experts, and organizations that have ranked Jacksonville as a top investment city in America. Better yet, take the word of the businesses that have moved to Jacksonville:
