So you have decided that buying a GO Zone property.  Now a few questions come to mind:

What Should You Buy?

Some things to consider are:

  • What is most desirable by renters;
  • What will have the best resell value; and
  • What produces the best cashflow.

 

Given that you typically have a choice between single family homes, duplexes, town homes, condos, and resort-type properties, it can be a complicated choice.  Make sure you watch the video to your right hand side for more information.

Where Should You Buy?

The GO Zone is a big place, but past December 2008 you can only focus on a small number of areas.  See a recent post we did on this topic.   Important things to consider in selecting a general location are:

 

  • Economic growth drivers;
  • Need for rentals & the property type you are considering; and
  • Rents cover expenses for purchased properties.

For many reasons, we really like the Biloxi & Gulfport areas because of the gaming industry and large number of other employers.  About every 6 weeks, we operate tours in the area so plan to join us for our next event.
