The Carolinas and parts of coastal Georgia just went nuts with Covid and "work from home".  The island my parents live on had low demand, houses not selling in 2018-19.  As soon as work from home happened, the market exploded and prices are up 100% or more.  Same in Hilton Head, Bluffton, Amelia Island, FL, Myrtle Beach, etc.  Most of Florida went up as well.  Greenville SC, Ashville NC, the Clemson area, those all went up massively too.  Anyplace that has a resort/relaxed feel plus things to do.

It's not hard to see why. If you lived in a place like Philly and commuted to work, you could sell you house, buy a bigger house in a gated island community, maybe with a dock, plus a golf course or two, for half what your ordinary suburban home cost.  And your taxes would go down.

My only trepidation about buying down there right now is that work from home is being rolled back at some companies (including mine). I opted to stay remote, it was a one-time choice that limits my career, but at this point I don't care.
