From what I've seen, new construction in the area is often estimated from various sources to take 16+ months including permit timelines.

My landlords use Azibo for management and RentSpree for screening, but there are a million options.

Tenants in cities like Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, etc have options when they receive their voucher.

On the RE side - I own/developed 2,000 residential units across the United States focusing on opportunistic residential acquisitions and development, including student housing conversions and luxury multifamily development.On the startup side - it is a third-party guarantor platform that expands your renter pool, increases rents and occupancy, and ultimately boosts your NOI while broadening affordable housing options for renters.

At NREIG, we strive to provide clear and comprehensive communication about the coverage options available to our clients.

I tend to agree that selling seems like a good option, especially since your rental income will not give you a good yield on current property valuation.Did you live in the rental as primary before?

While you might find a lender offering low down payment options, you'll still need cash reserves for repairs, maintenance, emergency fund (ideally 3-6 months of expenses), etc.

As properties have begun to be paid off for me, that few hundred a month becomes a rounding error as real wealth and options become available to you. 

That area in PA can also work for STR and MTR so if you buy a 4-unit, you have the option of diversifying the asset inside of itself by doing 2 LTR, 1 STR, and 1 MTR if you wanted to give yourself some options.

I will answer as it relates to traditional BRRRR, in the general case there are additional options.  1) Do not perform maximum cash extract.
