I've decided to invest in Raleigh and its surrounding areas for several compelling reasons, particularly in today's real estate climate. Raleigh has continuously grown and evolved, making it an ideal place for real estate investment. I've chosen to focus on Raleigh because of the following reasons:

- The city has a steady population growth

- The economy is stable

- There is potential for long-term equity growth

As I'm primarily interested in long-term equity growth, I'm currently exploring new-construction properties and working with the builder's lender to secure excellent incentives and introductory interest rates.

 Hey Tia, would you mind elaborating on what type of incentives you are getting and interest rates? I've not heard to much about this yet

I have been buying in Clayton, Smithfield, Selma, Wendell, Zebulon, and Franklinton. Wake county is getting too expensive.

Right now lots of companies and jobs are moving to the NC Triad area. Companies like Toyota, Boom Air have already started operations. Good time to buy in this area as well as its proximity to both Raleigh and Charlotte. Reach out to me if you are looking for any specific location in this area.

 These outside cities are great for affordability and growth. It all depends on your strategy @Edgar Gonzalez because for me I want to house hack and I know top dollar rent will come from being close to airport and downtown, meaning the more expensive area of north hills and surrounding areas. If you can get real clear on the numbers in, let's say, wake forest and the lower home price makes up for the lower rent, then great! Only other thing I'll say is that Raleigh is generally cool with airbnb but I've heard Wake Forest is not so much. You'll want to look into the different towns to make sure, depending on your strategy. let's talk shop anytime.

 Niiiice - that's exactly what I'm doing here too :) Having land to build on in Seattle is the way to play these days.
