I have put lots of offers in on on-market deals but since it's competitive in my market the price I'm able to get for anything on market is just not ripe enough.

And along these lines, if they move out, what condition does building and property need to be in?  

And, that this return to office will manifest itself first in suburban areas with relatively less competition and shorter commutes for local workers, and that re-absorption of inventory will take a lot of time in urban areas with tons of vacancies.

You need to have it fully stocked so people can cook while they are there and I tell you it is very important.You need to setup regular services for the hard systems like furnace, AC etc to keep them in top condition.

That said, you should adapt your strategy based on the market conditions.In lower-cost markets or areas with less competition, you might still be able to hit 1%.

While some leases say they will remove all evidence the sign was there and restore to original condition, I doubt that happens in bankruptcy for example. 

They want competitive pay for subpar Work.  

It also depends on market conditions and availability of cash in the market, both of which will create more or less "meat" so to speak in the deal.

I understand today EV pentration is next to nothing but in 10 to 15 years  seems to me MF that wants to stay competitive will need more than a few chargers .. if you have say 50 units and ony 30% have an EV U need at least 15 charging cords  and then you would need an additional parking area etc etc.. 

More competition > more offers > more bidding wars driving higher prices.
