Raleigh is the #2 hottest real estate market, Durham is #4

[Hannah Roach]

According to a new ranking from the U.S. News & World Report, Raleigh and Durham are the #2 and #4 hottest real estate markets in the country. During the COVID-19 pandemic, these areas benefited from the desire of more living space and unusually low mortgage rates. They still remain popular today even with higher mortgage rates and as more workers have returned to offices. Now is the time to buy and get your homes ready for Spring and Summer!
