As supply increases, demand decreases, which can eventually lead to lower prices if done on a large enough scale.Unfortunately, many people outside our industry don’t fully understand this.

I know they can be very difficult to manage, and many of them are old.Self storage and industrial are two niches that I think you should also consider.

Think a bunch of local commercial real estate agents or residential agents who are in the industry talk about what is needed...  

People in the real estate industry getting together online -  socializing, networking, helping each other out, and making deals!!!!!

Today there’s a virtual industry around it - such as this website. 2) It’s too easy to buy a small m/f property.

(b) these persons that would have been non-productive are now productive (c) people are getting trained and learning employable skills (d) companies are highly incentivized for GROWTH (e) you've effected stimulus in net housing production but with NO added tax revenue draws because it's via an offsetting factor AND arguably a potential net GAIN via expansion of industry leading to mor employment and more income tax revenues. 

If you are looking for someone as excited about this industry today as you were when you first started, that's me.
