By the way my last local purchase was dec 2021 which was before rates started increasing (just a few months before, i had good timing - when the fed states they are going to be raising rates, it is a good idea to believe rates may go up).

And lastly, I search FunishedFinder listings nearby, find comparable properties, and track the listed rent for a few months (does it increase, decrease?).
