I know Jacksonville is seeing massive growth as well. 

Building practically stopped for 10 years between 2008 -2018 and then picked up for 2- 3 years and then got hit with pandemic work shortages/increasing materials prices/work stoppages and then immediately onto higher interest rates.... so it's not a clear cut path to victory but there is a massive shortage in house hold units and an increase in household formation.... so worth exploring.

However I've also benefitted from the financial advice of others, including Warren Buffet...though I've never had an audience with him or the Pope. 

Massive extra fees, no listing control, poor reviews from people who have left their service etc.

Initially whatever I can get (i've no idea what's good - but this building has had nearly CONSTANT occupancy for the last 5 yrs http://gg.gg/437wp )I know that buying in smaller towns is the risk (and in that case, I'd want to buy with massive foot traffic, road traffic, and a key 'known' building.BTW, how do I do the @ command to MENTION your name, @Percy ?

Wholesalers are bringing tons of deals right now that can often be purchased for less than those on MLS.Take massive action and I'll see you at the top!
