we invest in non performing mortgages (and do some short term RTL's), and the indicators we look at are our inventory supply and where is the inventory.

Oil prices remain a huge X factor, and housing prices (at least with respect to rents) are being held back by the most supply EVER being built and coming online here in 2024.

This has happened all over the country and will continue to happen because we are becoming a renter nation and we will probably never keep up with the housing supply.

.- The 203(k) will allow you to bid on properties that need repairs that won't qualify for a traditional mortgage => less competition => better purchase price.You will need to find a great local contractor you can trust to supply the required bids to qualify for the 203(k).- After closing, you can do some of the work yourself to save money, but the program doesn't allow you to pay yourself.You will want to buy a Class B property, maybe Class C+, in an area that seems to be improving.

Recent zoning changes now allow for three dwellings on a single parcel, and parking requirements have been lifted in denser areas, both of which have boosted the local housing supply.

It supplies fuel to the east coast of the United States. 

I guess my challenge right now is to define the strategy and balance all the factors, such as job and population growth (value increase), cashflow (demand & supply market, interest rate, property tax, maintenance cost), and risk control (insurance etc). 

I'd be more worried about supplies to build houses (eg wood for the framing). 

Take that away by making it clear you will pay for, even supply, all materials.
