I own 4 two/three flats bought between 2013 and 2020 in Forest Park, Illinois, at low interest rates and prices in 200000's  They cash flow nicely and prices have increased a lot.

House hacking is a financial no-brainer, it eliminates you single biggest monthly expense, so you can increase your savings rate.

At annual rent increases, I do scour Zillow for market rents in the area, which I share with my tenants.

the key to a BRRRR, whether it's going to be an STR or LTR, is this:distress.you need to find a significantly distressed property, such that you can increase the ARV via the rehab. 

I think it's about the best time there is to outside of the past to invest and acquire properties.I just recently found an article by Julie Taylor from realtor.com that was posted December 10th that has some predictions on housing markets where "Home Sales Are Set to Soar" with Colorado Springs listed as number 1 with expected YoY sales increase of 27.1% and Denver expected to increase 13.6% YoY quoting Christine Dupont-Patz who is a real estate agent in the Denver area. 

So the added cashflow to property owners it they are willing to become the developer and increase density that tactic could help more owners stay than could otherwise afford to stay.
