About Huntsville, Alabama

In 1809, Twickenham was established as a town in Mississippi territory. In 1812, Twickenham was renamed Huntsville and incorporated into present-day Alabama territory. Shortly after, Huntsville was officially settled in 1817 (two years before the admission of Alabama as the twenty-second state into the Union) and was designated as the first capital of Alabama for one year.

In 1944, Huntsville was chartered as an official city, with a population of around 3,000 people, and the rest is history (listen to the full story of the Rocket City's emergence in Our Markets: The History of Huntsville, a recent episode of our On The House with Spartan podcast).

Modern-day Huntsville is best known for the U.S. Space and Rocket Center and the Huntsville International Airport (HSV), which flies commercial planes to these 13 major airline termini across the country: ATL, CLT, DEN, DFW, DTW, IAH, LAX, MCO, MIA (seasonally), ORD, TPA, IAD, and DCA.

Why Invest in Huntsville, Alabama?

There are many reasons to invest in turnkey rental properties in the Rocket City, including:

  • Massive Population Growth Demands: The City of Huntsville's population in 2022 was estimated at 227,529, with around 1,010.93 people per mile living in the city. This expanding population's median household income is around $70,757. As more people move to Huntsville for employment and careers, there’s more opportunity to capitalize on this influx of city residents.
  • More Huntsville Properties Are Closing: Between January and June of this year (2023), the number of closers rose ~74 percent for all housing types.
  • Properties Are Selling Faster: Houses only remain on the market for ~25 days on average for all housing types.
  • Sales Price Rising: From January to June of 2023, the median sales price for a Huntsville home rose from $315,000 to $340,000, and the average sales price similarly increased from $345,796 to $384,520 for all housing types.

Spartan Invest primarily offers single-family homes, occasionally offering duplexes and triplexes. Our prices are more affordable than market averages, but pricing will vary and may not be totally reflected in the sales prices above.

  • Renter-occupied households make up 42 percent of all households in the Huntsville area.
