I’m wondering if the influx of newer apartment complexes near campus has shifted the supply and demand balance.

Pittsburgh ranks #5 on Marcus & Millichap’s list of high-yield multifamily markets.Pittsburgh’s unemployment rate (4.7%) has dropped by 17.5% over the past 5 years.Pittsburgh is experiencing a demographic shift.

The findings are particularly interesting for those focused on the Columbus, Ohio market, which topped the list for both two-bedroom and three-bedroom rental searches.The report also notes a shift towards more apartment searches, influenced by the scarcity of single-family homes and rising interest rates.

The real estate market has shifted dramatically in recent years rising interest rates, evolving buyer and seller expectations, and fluctuating property values are keeping all of us on our toes.

The laws shift and change frequently, and no one really seems to understand the process, and if they do, they are never incentivized to actually help you.

Anyone have experience with a short term management company called BNB Monthly

To do that you can't just quadruple your prices, you have to quadruple the experience. 

If you’re looking at retrofitting to separate heating for each unit (like furnaces or mini-splits), you might be looking at a higher upfront cost, but it can shift utility expenses to tenants and improve your NOI.I’d factor in boiler age and efficiency when analyzing deals and if it’s near the end of its life, negotiate a price reduction or a credit.

Evenings aren’t possible for me since I work mid shift, unfortunately.  

And, considering market shifts.. what’s your approach to minimizing risks over the next two years?
