I didn't follow the impacts on the housing market though.Great website. 

Great point about different states and markets having different laws about using evictions as a reason for denial!

Just be sure to account for the upfront costs, ongoing maintenance, and market demand to make sure the numbers work for you.Good luck with your decision, and feel free to share updates as you move forward!

I've finally made the decision to get into the market to Build to Rent.

Leverage your W-2 income for better loan terms, explore private/hard money for off-market deals, and network with investors to expand your deal flow.Good luck!

As an aside, insurance companies are inspecting most properties one way or another in the current market.
