Reno, NV, is a prime investment spot due to its strong property appreciation, with values rising over 10% annually.

Thanks Bradley, spot on thank you.

@Jay Hinrichs said is spot on, of course, because these guys are "Super Pro's", so devour all there info. and nothing I am saying here negates any fo that, it's in addition to. 

It really hits the spot.

We just did this as a seller on some of my new builds.. we sold 3 in the last few week and I negotiated commission on all of them.. a little different for us here in Oregon as these are new builds and folks ask for upgrades.. so like on one I said sure we will upgrade to Hardwood throughout but we are not paying a broker fee to your agent you will need to pay them.. well they passed on the hardwood and we agreed to pay their broker 1%. thats how it worked out.. in the higher priced markets its going to put buyers agents on the spot. because if sellers say we will pay 10k which is about 1% and buyers agents are used to getting double that they will have a hard time talking to their buyer who still thinks 10k is a big pay day and wont understand why the agent thinks they are getting shorted.. 

The parking area is an assign spot.

This particular area in our market doesn't have cheaper 3 bedroom 2 bathroom homes so there's a nice sweet spot in the market.

Some bright spots, but not likely to see appreciation that you see in other markets.

Areas with a healthy balance of supply and demand will have more motivated sellers and active buyers.Consider Price Points: Target markets where homes are priced in the sweet spot for investors, often between $100k and $300k.
