36555, Magnolia Springs, AL

The 36555 zip code of Magnolia Springs, Alabama is located in the southeastern corner of the state. The zip code covers a total area of 8.5 square miles and has a population of just over 5,000 people. Home prices in this zip code have been increasing rapidly over the past few years, reaching an all-time high of $269,900 in February 2017.

There are several factors that are contributing to the increase in home prices in this zip code. First and foremost, there is a strong demand for housing stock in this area due to its proximity to major cities like Birmingham and Huntsville as well as its rural setting. Additionally, Magnolia Springs is located within close proximity to both military bases and major industrial facilities, which has led to an influx of new residents into the area over the past few years. Finally, there is also a large number of investors who are purchasing homes in this zip code for investment purposes rather than for use as their primary residence. As a result, home prices here are typically much higher than they would be if they were primarily occupied by homeowners who live here full-time.

Despite these positive factors, there are also some potential risks that could impact home prices in this area over time. For one thing, if economic conditions deteriorate significantly overall (which seems increasingly likely given current global trends), then it could lead to a decrease in demand for housing stock throughout Alabama (and potentially even moreso in Magnolia Springs). Additionally, although investor activity has been relatively stable so far over the past few years (although it could potentially change at any time), there is always the potential for unforeseen circumstances that could lead to an increase in volatility around home prices here – something that would undoubtedly have negative consequences for those who have invested their money into homes here thus far.
