Invest In San Diego
San Diego is a hot market with both the city and surrounding areas attracting investors and residents. For this post “San Diego” means downtown and the immediate city neighborhoods. The short answer is San Diego real estate is competitive! Both the rental market and property values are strong and it’s because of the area’s demand and limited land for new construction. If you’re considering investing in San Diego real estate, one of the biggest questions is what’s the future appreciation potential. While San Diego property prices are high compared to national averages, there’s still growth opportunities. The city has a steady flow of new residents, a strong job market and a perfect climate. Although the market has cooled a bit in terms of price growth recently, experts still consider San Diego a stable investment.
One of the risks with San Diego investments is the high barrier to entry and low cap rates due to high demand and prices. And new construction is tough with strict zoning and regulations. But the lack of inventory helps keep demand and stability in this market.
If you want a luxury market with great quality of life, a hot rental market and timeless appeal, San Diego is the place for a long term investment.
