Right now, the real estate market in Tennessee is great for buyers. Let’s take a look at why this is the perfect time to purchase a home in Bristol.
Why the Real Estate Prices in Tennessee Are So Low
If you’re thinking about purchasing land in The Volunteer State, you’re smart to consider a home in Bristol. Land in Tennessee is widely available, as more than 80% of the land in the state is used for farming. So prices remain relatively low compared to states in which there is little land up for grabs.
Tennessee’s low cost of living also keeps real estate prices down, makes the state a highly desirable place to live, and keeps residents happy. With no state income tax and low property taxes, residents find that they’re able to pay off their homes faster than they’d be able to in other states.
The economy in Tennessee — specifically, in Bristol, TN — is booming. The downtown area has seen 20 businesses switch hands since the year 2000, resulting in a lively, exciting, innovative downtown area that still holds onto old Tennessee charm.
