Quote from @Michael James Hamlin: We just moved to Baldwin county and we are looking to network/partner up with other professionals in new construction, fix and flip or commercial.

Fast forward another 8 weeks and the HVAC dies and the tenant moves out.

However, there are good deals in both markets.The key is to know your numbers and what makes a good investment.

Starting with house hacking is a smart move, especially in a higher-cost area.

This method typically provides an accurate, data-driven view before deciding to move forward with a property.

I am from Buffalo, NY and will be moving to Charleston shortly. 

A new person moves in and she says the upstairs neighbors are creating a ton of noise.

So advice to get the house against him and he will move out on his own is HIGHLY unlikely.  

We are seeing people move from higher cost of living areas like Raleigh, Durham, chapel hill, and even Greensboro.   

Ownership of the fence remains the key driver.
