Looking for Advice on Investing in Raleigh

[Bradon Gentile]

Hi everyone, My name is Bradon. I’ve been investing in real estate for about 6 years and I’m looking into the Raleigh and Fayetteville market for potential opportunities. I’d really appreciate any insight on this.

Whether long term rentals, short term rentals, or flips are working best right now?

Also open to any recommendations for property managers, contractors, or lenders if you’ve had good experiences with anyone.

Thanks for any advice or info you’re willing to share.

Hi Bradon, Gianni here.
Great to see your interest in Raleigh and Fayetteville, I'd be happy to share insights and connect you with any references that may help.

From my conversations with investors of those areas, Fayetteville has generally performed well for both long-term rentals (LTRs) and flips. Raleigh, on the other hand, tends to be stronger for flips. The higher price points in Raleigh can make it more difficult to cash flow as a rental, but there’s good potential in identifying areas where renovations are already underway.

For example, Stevens Road and Brighton Road are seeing a lot of renovations and some new builds, making it possibly a great opportunity to benefit from rising comps as nearby homes are updated. I would be more than happy to help you get some contacts in order to help you branch off into investing in these new areas.

Best,
