Single Family Home Investing in North Atlanta Suburbs in the current market environment
North Atlanta (Cumming, Alpharetta, Woodstock, Roswell) Single Family (SFH) homes have appreciated tremendously from the housing bottom in 2012 to 2015. With the prices high or higher than the real estate peak, is it smart to invest in SFH's with the intention of renting the house. The appreciation potential in the SFH is very minimal. The investment from private equity sector in SFH's effectively decreased the supply of homes tremendously driving up the prices in the market. What happens when the private equity funds release these homes into the market and when might that be - does anyone know?
Given this situation in SFH's, is it any better to invest in commercial properties - strip malls, professional buildings. Have these types of properties also appreciated tremendously in value from market bottom or are they still good investment? Thanks
