These Are the Best States for Landlords in 2025—And We’re Already There

Introduction

Choosing the right market is about more than just population growth or rental demand. It’s also about investor protections, tax policy, and landlord rights.

That’s why we were excited—but not surprised—to see Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina land among the Top 10 Most Landlord-Friendly States in 2025, according to a new TurboTenant report.

These aren’t just great places to live. They’re smart places to invest.

What Makes a State “Landlord-Friendly”?

TurboTenant looked at several key factors:

➤ Eviction laws and lease enforcement
➤ Property tax rates
➤ Insurance costs
➤ Rent control or regulatory risk
➤ Population growth trends

The top states combine low regulatory friction with high tenant demand—making them ideal for landlords and passive investors alike.

Top-Ranked States for Landlords in 2025

According to the report, here are some of the top-ranked landlord-friendly states:

That’s four out of the top seven states where Faris Capital Partners is actively investing.

Why This Matters to Investors

When we evaluate a new market, we’re looking at two things:

1. Fundamentals: Population growth, job creation, and rental demand
2. Friction: How difficult is it to manage and protect our assets?

Markets like Charleston, Tampa, and Atlanta not only have strong rent growth—but they also give property owners more flexibility to execute the business plan without bureaucratic delays or costly compliance burdens.

That means:

✅ Faster lease-ups
✅ Stronger cash flow
✅ More predictable operations
✅ Higher returns for investors

Real-World Example: Faris Residences Goose Creek

Located in landlord-friendly South Carolina, our Goose Creek property has benefited from:

➤ Short turnaround times for unit renovations and new leases
➤ Simple lease enforcement and renewals
➤ 18 lease trade-outs last month alone, including 3 at a 31% premium over prior rents

The takeaway? When the market works with you—not against you—you win faster.
