Why Phoenix
Phoenix is a city filled with energy, opportunity and growth. It will be difficult to match the limitless opportunities presenting themselves in this city.
When the US economy entered a downturn, the real estate market in Phoenix was hit hard. During the boom the city had a lot of space to grow so speculative investors over-built and over-financed resulting in a sea of foreclosed and distressed properties. With single family home CAP rates of 9-10 percent and future appreciation, historically high returns are likely. The bottom line is that Phoenix is a buyers market with unbeatable bargains and the cash flow numbers really work. This city will emerge with a strong, re-newed, expanding economic base.
