.: Quote from @Kent Ford: Texas is seeing a surge in new real estate businesses due to its booming population and investor-friendly climate.

I bet no more than 5% of the population is in high fire risk areas.  

In some states, particularly those with warmer climates and robust population growth, seasonality plays a less significant role.

Everywhere else has a declining population and not a lot to get excited about long term. 

The U.S. is forming more households than ever, and that trajectory will likely remain the same due to population growth.​​

Here's why savvy investors should have San Antonio on their radar for 2025 and beyond.Steady Population GrowthSan Antonio's growth trajectory remains strong, with a 1.5% population increase since 2022 [1].

I think the long term fundamentals here are solid with job growth and population growth, it’s just a matter of the new supply getting absorbed which will take 2-3 years. 

Lots of growth in both population and jobs and housing.Rentals are a bit tough I think right now for the most part, but I think the market will start to shake out over the next year or two.If you are not a PR or citizen of the US, then you have to decide if you want to use cash, which is probably preferable or use financing. 

I'll bite bc I love the STR market conversation - Mammoth Cave in KY, New River Gorge in WV, Hot Springs in AR, Nashville, IN (the town Nashville located in Indiana), and any major college town that you don't hate with a growing population and level 1 trauma center hospital. 

@Kevin S.Having a will alone still puts you in the minority of the population so good job on that !
