Forest Acres Subdivision – This is known as Area five to local agents. It is very desirable because of its close vicinity to downtown, shopping and I-77. The area started developing in the 50’s to accommodate those citizens wanting to be close to town, but not right in downtown. Brick 2 and 3 bedroom ranch homes became the most common. Long before track builders, homes were mostly custom built. Few had garages and lot size varied from small 1/3^rd of an acre to ½ an acre. As time elapsed dens became bedrooms and add ons included back porches being enclosed, and even some basements being turned into living space. Renovations have become popular which included central heat and air, converting carports to garages, adding closet space, renovating and updating small kitchens and bathrooms. Some homes have been completely gutted or torn down giving way to 2 story houses. Homes here start in the low 90’s and go up to over $500,000 with new estates going higher then that close to the Lakes for newer homes who have an acre or more with lake views.

These are ideal for rentals if you can buy it right.  Long-term projection would be a very safe investment and a good place to live with no HOA fees and saving on gas if you work downtown. You can even bike or take a bus.
