Interest rates impact on R/E Investing Market
How do most investors feel about how increased interest rates will impact the R/E Investing market? Rates up over 1% takes away a significant portion of cash flow making there little to no cash flow at market rental rates... Investments always look better 3-5 years after purchasing but wanted to see how the community is reacting to the increase in rates. Mostly talking 2-4 unit properties, but open to the larger discussion as well.

Higher rates will also push more people out of home-buying, which will increase rental demand! Underwriting will be tight, but in many markets, the macro trends are pushing rents up significantly, so picking your markets is as important as ever.
