Buying in a sellers market
I want to begin my Real Estate portfolio by house-hacking during college. My university is in the Salt Lake City Utah area. It is a great place to live and go to school but right now it is definitely a sellers market. I am nervous about buying while home prices are so high but I don't want to wait potentially for years to have a better buying market.
How can a buyer be successful in a sellers market?
How would I tell when there is a better buying market?
Should I postpone investing while home prices are high?

Would you rather buy in a sellers market at a 4.5% interest rate or in a buyers market at a 6% interest rate?
