Greenville SC vs Huntsville AL

[Raj Mukherjee]

I understand there is no perfect answer here. However, I am looking to see if fellow investors have strong perspectives one way or another -

If you had a fixed amount of capital that you could invest, would you invest in Huntsville or Greenville? Inventory in both places is low, and we all know rents are going up making it possible to have a decent cashflow in both places.

I always look at jobs, population movement and affordability. It seems both cities fare well in those regards and are projected to continue to do well.

Next, I look at schools - Huntsville is much better it seems.

Finally, I look at housing starts, price points, infrastructure and safety - both cities are comparable, although Huntsville seems a bit better.

What am I missing? What would you do?

@Gorden Lopes I couldn't agree more! This is how I have been making money. Not buying the cheapest house in town but buying in areas with the best schools. Rents follow.
