What issues are common in your market?

As our portfolio grows I'm learning that every market has its own unique hurdle(s) that show up repeatedly. (landlord regs, construction quality, financing, MLS issues, not-so-common common practices) A few personal examples:

-upstate NY: purchase prices too low for a bank to lend on

-central TX: foundation settling in almost every property

-San antonio TX: non-permitted accessory dwelling units

-Cleveland OH: is every property locked up by a wholesaler? (kidding.. but kind of not haha)

Curious what quirks are common in your markets that you're used to dealing with?
