So where else have you lived where you might have a competitive advantage?

I like targeting what I would call secondary or tertiary markets, because the lack of supply and the lower competition.

nope rentals but that's just based off of Zillow...my point being that state of the investor rental market has changed and to be aware of the competitive landscape, regardless of the type of exchange.

The difference in this portion of the execution can be $30k-$60k/yr more money in your pocket vs. that of our competition all other factors equal (such as the property size/location).Next, to drive costs down, I co-host (only for clients) at 15% which is 5-15% less than the large PM firms.  

A fourplex is my vote because there is less competition due to the higher price point and barrier to entry.

Assessing the current market conditions and property values in your area can provide a clearer picture.Current Market Dynamics: Consider other factors like inventory levels, the competitiveness of the market, and personal circumstances.

Purchase price: $140,000 Cash invested: $20,000 This was my first home that I purchased back in 2021 when interest rates were still low and competitive.

Values at least in our market were quite sticky and on top of that our competition when rates sky rocketed de engineered their houses to get their prices down. 

You should also research your competition and see what people are gravitating too.

Couple that with the lack of home building post GR and that's made a 1+1 combo equal 5.also in last 60 days, there're bunch of SFR funds liquidating their houses unsure why, but this month the top secret narrative that everyone already know is we are in GFC 2008 situation in CRE fantasy-land ; so it seems lot of funds in trouble and there're lot of redemption request from investors, maybe it's forced selling of the good performance asset to help recover the bad asset. 2024 is extremely interesting Jason, there're lot of factors that keep driving the dynamic of single family, and it's not employment per-se.
