Since you may not know the Huntsville are well, the link below is to a webpage on our site for newcomers to our area. The information might be helpful as you start your search.
Huntsville AL newcomer information.
My personal favorite area is northeast Madiosn County followed by the Hampton Cove area.
If you did decide to move forward with a purchase and wanted to keep your payments in the $1,800 - $2,000 range we should be looking for homes in the $280,000 to $290,000 range. The advantage to waiting to purchase is that you will have time to learn the area before committing to a purchase. The downside to waiting is that interest rates are trending higher and while the Huntsville real estate market is still soft, there are consistent signs that it is recovering. Home prices are starting to creep upward and days on market for sales becoming less. If the current trend continues it may be more expensive to purchase next year.
The second link below is to a sampling of available properties for sale in areas with schools that are already good or with schools that are average and trending towards improvement. The area just to the west of Redstone Arsenal is the fastest growing are of Huntsville. There is a lot of active construction and plans for future development including roads and shopping. A new middle school, Williams Middle was finished last year on the campus of Williams Elementary. Whole the elementary school has low rankings and the middle school has not yet been ranked, my expectation is that with the influx of higher income, engaged, tax paying parents the schools will improve. Given you are 4 - 5 years away from schools being an issue, this area might be an option for you.
