Augusta indeed offers great potential with a strong rental market driven by factors such as population growth and a stable job market.

And for most of my clients, they are generally attracted to a city or market for personal reasons and THEN then find a property that works for them rather than looking at general market numbers...meaning, my clients can make money in ANY market, even ones where the population isn't growing, the rental demand is softening, and the rent-to-price ratios are less than attractive.So to you, does PA mean Pittsburgh, Philly, or central PA?

@Camille Romero I would not buy a property in a city with a declining population.

Compared to other towns in Oklahoma.There is also an army base in lawton which helps keep the population high and another reason why the rental demand is high out there!

However, many appraisers (and realtors, and the general population) believe that it does need a closet in order to be considered an actual bedroom - I have no clue why - it is not part of the building code!  

These areas are experiencing significant development and population growth, driven by families and professionals seeking more affordable housing while staying close to the job hubs in Plano, Frisco, and even parts of North Dallas.

But if you put in the effort, Detroit can be incredibly rewarding.Over the last several years, the city has been on a steady upswing: population growth, major corporate investments, and increasing demand for housing are all positive indicators.

There are large areas in the direction of the flight paths that do not have dense populations so it’s mostly a non-issue.

A lot of my out of state real estate clients really like this market because the macroeconomics look so good for this market - population is growing, job growth is growing, and so many companies moving and developing here.

There's so many catalysts for population and job growth (Intel, Honda, Amazon, Nationwide Hospital, etc).
