Thanks, Alex, makes perfect sense.

Excellent points, Bill, thank you. Way too many moving parts to be totally sure, but if the bigger money is investing there, it should be a good sign.

When did you buy, Chris?

While doing due diligence on a property in Kannapolis, NC, I discovered that the city has recently started a project to revitalize the downtown area. It will include a minor league baseball stadium, commercial areas, and residential housing of 1.5 million SF. (Presumably mostly 1 and 2 BR apartments?) This is scheduled to be done in stages over 20 years, and as needed. My question is, How will this likely affect the rents and appreciation of SFRs just a couple of miles away? On one hand, will the growing city lead to an increase outside of downtown, or will it drain the values as people prefer the newer area? I'd love to hear everyone's experiences with this....

Interesting concept. I wonder what the property manager's role would be in this.

Welcome to BP!

Hi @Kal Stoyanov I don't have any property in Jacksonville yet, but plan on it soon...

Agreed. Great work, guys. Keep it up!

There are two types of people in the world. 

Those who remove outlet covers before painting the wall, and those who don't.

Does anyone have any experiences dealing with the following companies in Jacksonville? Hampton & Hampton,

Home Encounter,

Suncoast Property Management, or 

Park Avenue Properties

I'd love to hear from anyone whose used any of them...Thanks.

Thanks, @Nancy Bachety This site is great. Tough staying organized on it though. (In fact, I missed a few posts between accessing on different devices.)... You're so right-every question I get answered leads to a few more....Im originally from Queens, though, and @Christopher Phillips is from Garden City, so we have LI represented here. (Im sure there's tons more.)

and thanks for the tips, @Stacy Williams....Im looking to stay under 150K...
