This month I'm looking forward to going to Cape Cod with my family, soaking up as much sun by the pool as possible, and getting my son ready for kindergarten! I am not crying, you are crying...
On a professional front, I am excited to share that I ranked #25 RE/MAX Agent for Massachusetts for 2023 (so far)! With thousands of agents in Massachusetts alone, I am honored to be a top producing Realtor in the great state I love! Thank you for helping me get there!
The answer? Trader Joes! Homes near a Whole Foods are worth an average of $891,416.
Homes near the German-developed Aldi are worth an average of $321,116. Despite its lower neighborhood status, Aldi can be a sign that a neighborhood is on the brink of "exploding."
Attom's research found that homes with an Aldi in their zip code appreciated by an average 58% between 2022 and 2021. The average gross flipping return on investment (ROI) in neighborhoods with an Aldi is a whopping 54%.
The ROI is only 24% and 28% for Trader Joe's and Whole Foods respectively.

Sounds straightforward, right? But remember, these percentages are just general guidelines. Some may be comfortable allocating a larger chunk of their income towards housing, while others might prefer less.
It's essential to consider factors like your savings goals, lifestyle, and other financial responsibilities when deciding what an appropriate amount to spend on a home is for you!
