Are you thinking this new cycle of higher rates is at its peak and we are going to head back to the 3%-4% range?

Any markets that have peaked your interest?

We can all agree that a large chunk of the country is still well below where peak numbers were in 2007 as far as FMV.  

It say the peak season is March when in reality it is July/Aug.

Granted that's apples and oranges, because the new homes are larger and all in the suburbs, but as long as you can buy an existing home for half the price per square foot than a new construction home I would be careful with expecting peak appreciation.

Is there a peak season, or does Gulf Shores have a consistent flow of visitors year-round?

I also have some properties valued over $1M and can go for over $1,500 a night in peak season. 

During peak seasons, you can maximize income with STR, and when things slow down, MTR for guests like traveling nurses can provide steady cash flow.

I just finished reading Dirt Rich and it's peaked my interest in the possibilities of land investment. 

Cities like Miami, Tampa, and Orlando offer diverse opportunities, from luxury properties to short-term rentals.While demand peaks during winter, when northern residents flock south, the state experiences fewer slowdowns in the real estate cycle.
