It’d be great to know a little more about your market preferences and non-negotiables, since Alabama’s pretty diverse in terms of what it can offer.For example, the Huntsville area is a much higher-growth market than Birmingham, and the median home in each area is priced accordingly to reflect that difference.Even individual markets can vary widely by zip code—properties in a Birmingham suburb like Forestdale are going to fetch dramatically different rents than homes in a neighborhood like Mountain Brook or Vestavia Hills.In any case, let us know what your buying criteria look like, and we can give more pointed recommendations.

@Frans Calderon all you've been posting about for the last 2 months is promoting Baselane.You may want to post your ads under the Classifieds Forum.

Miami has a diverse market, and many buyers might actually appreciate the mixed-use neighborhood. 

There might be demand, but oversupply in certain areas, like Orlando, is pushing prices so low that it becomes impossible for some property owners to break even, let alone turn a profit.Agents promoting STRs as "good investments" without considering the current market saturation, high operating costs, and potential competition do a disservice to buyers.

I plan to create a diverse portfolio by some point in my life but feel that the best investment so far to start in is real estate.

I have become obsessed with educating myself everyday though the sources I listed above and have been promoted an opportunity where I need the bigger pockets families opinion.About 2 months ago a family member had received an email from Real Estate Sales LLC - Flip Cheap Houses.

The Bloomington-Indianapolis area has diverse submarkets, and identifying the right neighborhoods with growth potential is crucial.

University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) has seen record enrollment in recent years: it set its highest attendance in history, with over 57,000 students enrolled and in 2024 just had highest freshman attendance in history and keeps growing, Carle Hospital, Craft Factory (Warren Buffett approves), etc for diversity of economic drivers.

It seems like you're promoting a program or something.
