We don't do short term rentals, but those I know who do say that the year round market in Portland (and other pockets of coastal Maine) is accelerating rapidly.

This put downward pressure on market prices and cause neighborhoods to decline.a rapid population increase will cause a shortage of housing, and this will tend to increase rents and prices.We are not talking about identifying specific up and coming neighborhoods on their way to gentrification, this is very hard to do without being very familiar with a given neighborhood, but about painting the states with a very wide brush and see what cities are going to grow at a macro level.## Statistical Areas defined for US Census Analyzing commute routes to identify economic ties is not new.

Until about a month ago we were both employed and saving rapidly for a down payment on a house, but then I was laid off.

The debt service is rapidly approaching finality.

Just look at market DOM, it is increasing rapidly for many homes.

It then starts climbing rapidly usually a percent or more per year.

Good to keep in mind when it comes to other states with high humidity or rapidly changing weather conditions.

That means you'll need a leader and rapid followers.

My strategy is to buy and hold long term, and would like to find smaller towns that have that rapid appreciation potential. thanks in advance

The area of this one is gentrifying at a rapid pace.
