5 Best States to Invest in Real Estate in 2021

4. Maine

Maine is also located in the northwestern region of the United States. Maine has had a total appreciation of 17.4% over the past two years. While Maine has a lower median income than the national average at $75,700, it is compensated by the fact that the cost of living and affordability is also lower in the state than the national average. Mortgage rate is also low at 2.9% in the state on top of that. This drives up property demand and so does the potential for good returns.
