FAYETTEVILLE FORT BRAGG MARKET AN INSIDER VIEW

Is our area experiencing the falling prices and Real Estate problems you hear and read of across the country? The answer is a definitive NO!

Thanks to the diversity and rotation of those who proudly serve in our Armed Forces, our area has traditionally been a great place to own Real Estate. It's no secret that Fort Bragg is already the largest military base in the country by population. With base re-alignment (BRAC) , our area is experiencing a tremendous growth pattern. Those who PCS to Bragg, as well as the myriad number of supporting contractors and family members who accompany them, are driving our local economy and ensuring Fayetteville, Fort Bragg, Hoke County, Harnett County, and surrounding areas are slated to be a stable market for generations to come.

Fayetteville will soon be North Carolina's 4th largest metro, thanks to the population boom , and and an aggressive local government that is pro-active in preparing for the future. New schools, major highways such as The Fayetteville Outer Loop (currently under construction and partially complete ), and the economical cost of living expenses as compared to other areas make our area a great place to own Real Estate and to live!

Many retirees are relocating back to our area after owning homes here , changing duty stations for years , and returning to their homes that they have rented out for a profit. Even those who have no military affiliation are relocating and retiring here from places like New York ,New Jersey, California and even Florida citing the low cost of living, and yes...even one of the lowest average gasoline prices in the nation.

How about foreclosures? Yes we have them! Although their numbers are far below the National average. Even then most traditional homebuyers or investors must have cash, or special financing arrangements to purchase them as most are offered "AS IS" and lenders shy away from standard VA, FHA, and Conventional loans on homes that need repairs. Still, opportunity abounds for those who can acquire these properties below market value, make improvements, and lease or sell for a profit.
