Gulf Shores vs Orange Beach: Which Is Better for Condo Investors?

If you’re thinking about buying a condo on the Alabama coast as an investment, one of the biggest questions you’ll face is whether Gulf Shores or Orange Beach is the better choice.

In this video, I break down the real differences that matter to condo investors, including:

Rental demand and guest type
HOA fees and investor rules
Cash flow vs long-term appreciation
Occupancy vs nightly rates
Short-term rental performance

There’s no hype here — just a clear, side-by-side comparison to help you decide which market fits your investment strategy.

Whether you’re focused on cash flow, appreciation, or a hybrid approach, the right answer depends on the numbers, the building, and your goals — not just the location.

I help buyers analyze real rental data, HOA structures, and long-term risks before they purchase.
