Hey Wayne - I hope all is going well with you.
I just noticed that the site Zilpy was just recommended as a way to gage the rental market in Palm Coast, FL. Although this is an additional tool to use to gather information...you know about junk in junk out when it comes to data. Please note that the demographic information given regarding Palm Coast, Fl is from the 2000 Census and we all know that this data is nowhere near to accurate anymore.
Also, in many cases the monthly rental values are not necessarily the best indicator of how healthy the rental market is. By speaking with Rental Professionals in the area, you will get more accurate and excellent data on current vacancy percentages and the quality of the renters. You do not want a renter in your property that is going to damage the premises or default on their lease.
Although I did manage my own rental properties in Palm Coast, Fl for 8 years.....I have liquidated all of my rental properties in the area.......I do not manage rental properties in Palm Coast, - Flagler County for others...but would be happy to email a list of Property Management Companies and Property Managers that will give a more realistic report on the current rental situation in the community.
For customers who are interested in purchasing properties in the area with the goal of becoming a landlord...feel free to visit my website to Search thousands of available properties. I would also be happy to add you to my Hot Properties notifier.
As always, feel free to contact me anytime...I believe that knowledge and transparency in real estate is power and I am a strong advocate for consumer empowerment.....Kristi
