The market for real estate has changed considerably, especially when taking into account the recent pandemic of 2020 and its effect. Additionally, with the changes that have occurred to the workforce with the introduction of remote jobs. Additionally, the emergence of changes in lifestyle with the reliance and ever growing dependence on companies such as Uber and Amazon Prime now also play a greater role when the average citizen chooses where to reside. For example, factors such as flexibility and convenience are now of far greater importance than ever before. So it is no surprise that when people are looking to purchase or reside in a location the main consideration is given to a location with amenities in a closeby location without having to waste time on traffic and finding a parking location. These factors and other key statistics such as population growth and property prices have all been considered when selecting the following cities as good real estate investment opportunities.
