Seattle market?

[Account Closed]

Is it just me or is the seattle market a hard market to cash flow? I mean even kent/renton, auburn, Des Moines to even north seattle, all the markets seem expensive. I always see people post about buying a duplex for like 150k or something and here in seattle that's a joke lol. The only duplex for sale in my area which is kent/renton is for 499k lol. Try to cash flow that? Lol I buy and hold single families. I always buy about 2000 sf and rent for about 2k a month. I usually buy newer and around 200k-250k. I've bought several since 2009-2014. But now I'm looking for more, and finding anything under 300k is hard. Anyone else in the seattle area seeing the same struggle?
