Ready to jump in!!! BUT Montgomery

Windell Cox
Posted

I'm ready to jump into real estate investing but..to be honest I'm scared. 

I've been recently looking into Montgomery AL as being the location for my first property. BUT im worried that the vacancy rates are too high. And no major industries but military.


So, I'm not sure. Is Montgomery a good place for my first buy? Or should I focus on locations with lower vacancy rates.

Thanks

regarding montgomery, AL ; one thing that you have to really really look for , is housing foundation issue. Make sure inspection comes clean in that aspect.
