We tried to buy a home in Richmond last year, but there were 50 people it seemed going after each home that came up there, now we are hearing they are just about all rentals, and that after a year most of these will go up for sale for a hefty profit. So basically , because of the market, people are just buying to flip. Which is a shame , because a lot of us who have now bought in Newell and plan to live here tried to get into Richmond only to be shoved out by investors looking to make a buck versus those of us who actually wanted to call this home.
