QOTW: Are you buying properties in our current market and why
Welcome back our Question of the Week!
We took a short break from our weekly question while we rolled out the new forum design. Thank you to those who have provided feedback for continued improvements. Our community is made great by our members. We will continue to implement some of the suggestions in the coming weeks.
Today's question: Are you still buying properties given the current market? Why or why not?
We all know that none of us can time the market, but there are several strategies at play. Share your thoughts on your strategy and how it lines up with your goals! (Political discussions should be limited to laws or policies directly impacting real estate.)

Quote from @David Garner:
Yes... I'm buying off market at a discount amd adding value. There are always motivated sellers and value add opportunities regardless of the markedly cycle. I'm usually all in for less than 65% of ARV, so I'm good with prices falling or rising to an extent.
how do you find them?
