Housing in the Sun Belt vs the Rust Belt

[James Wise]

Investing in the sun belt is a lot different than investing in the rust belt. When you're investing in the rust belt you're usually buying very cheap Section 8 housing in low income markets like Baltimore, Detroit & Cleveland. These are great housing markets for investors who want an affordable cash flow play. However, these rust belt markets don't typically feature a ton of price appreciation due to their stagnant and/or declining market populations. Conversely, investors who are looking for population growth and subsequent price appreciation are usually better off investing in the sun belt. There are many sun belt markets that are seeing a ton of snow birds moving into town and growing the local housing prices. One of those growth markets is the Orlando, Florida real estate market. The Orlando real estate market is one of the best growth markets for long term buy & hold investors. Contact our friends at Rent To Retirement to learn more about how you can build an appreciating rental property portfolio in sun belt markets like Orlando, Florida.
