Greenville SC Area Feasibility and Strategies

[Travis Provin]

Hello,

I'm a rookie real estate investor currently house hacking in the greater Asheville NC area looking to purchase a mid or long term rental property in a nearby area. Being about an hour away from Greenville (and hearing great things from friends who have lived there in the past) I am curious how the market is looking. Seems like manufacturing, tech, and healthcare are the big employers in the area and a quick search of Greenville proper seems like there are a lot of properties for rent (although I could be misjudging what "a lot" looks like).

For anyone investing in the greater Greenville area, what is working? STR? Medium Term Rental? Fix and flip? Is it possible to create a cash flowing property in today's market?
