Taking into account climate migration when choosing locations?

Patrick V.
Posted

I whole heartedly believe in climate change and am curious if other investors take into account how a region will be affected by a changing climate when choosing whether or not to invest. There are maps here that outline the cities most at risk. 

Some of the cities that are at greatest risk are also cities seeing great appreciation and good cashflow. These climate problems wont truly actualize for 40+ years but even so I am a bit apprehensive when it comes to investing in areas like S Florida, etc. Is this a logical concern?

On the flip side some mid west markets that already have great cash flow numbers may see dramatically increased appreciation as a warming climate pushes folks further north in the next century.

What are your thoughts?
