Would real estate prices in certain regions rise rapidly due to demand from both local and international buyers? 

I read an artcile in The Economist not too long ago that mentioned how smaller towns like Jasper can offer stable rental demand if you play your cards right...

I'd be cautious of a seller that refuses to allow buyers to inspect the property.

When the housing market became seller friendly, I unloaded 5/6 of our long term rental units, paid off our house with that and invested in stocks and mutual funds…completely no fun, right??

Could have held until this winter and gotten his occupancy up to around 80% and would have added another $500k to the value.Downpayment $310kAll in cost plus loan: $1.3mmSold for $2.4mm; with 250k seller financing for 5 years. 

😳This is caused by a combination of buyers not being able to afford to buy with interest rates back up above 7%, and seller’s not wanting to budge on their sale price...a standoff.My guess is 2025 will likely be just like 2024 and 2023 if rates stay above 6%....

Look into seller financing or subject to properties in the area that you want to purchase. 

I am wanting to make sure I will be working with a title company that is familiar with wholesale assignment contracts, seller financing, lease with an option to purchase and possibly sandwich leasees with an option to purchase.

Our negotiation approach focused on building rapport with the seller, allowing us to secure the property below market value.
