Memphis - The Market That Built REI Nation

Written by Chris Clothier | Tue, Mar 18, 2025

When it comes to real estate investing, Memphis is more than just a city—it’s the foundation of REI Nation. Twenty years ago, we chose Memphis as our starting point, and it’s no coincidence that this market remains one of the most consistent and reliable in the country for real estate investors.

This week’s Transformation Tuesday property, located at 8990 Fletcher Park Circle North in Cordova, TN, exemplifies why Memphis continues to be the bedrock of our business.

A Beautiful Transformation

This stunning home underwent a $50,335 renovation, ensuring it meets the high standards our investors and residents have come to expect. Here’s what we did:

New AC Unit and Furnace: Comfort is key for long-term residents, and we made sure this home is equipped for every season.
New Flooring Throughout: From the first step inside, this property feels fresh, clean, and inviting.
Over $16,000 in Cosmetic Upgrades: From updated fixtures to a meticulous paint job, we’ve enhanced every detail to create a home that’s not just livable but lovable.
Exterior Enhancements: We made the outside as beautiful as the inside, boosting curb appeal and ensuring the home stands out in the neighborhood.

The result? A property ready to welcome long-term residents who value quality and stability.

Just to highlight a few. See the Transformation for Yourself:
