Personally, I don't think you should be dropping your minimum credit score to under 600.

When rates drop I anticipate demand to increase and inventory will probably stay about the same, so prices will rise.

Renters handle the electrical and water, and manage the lawn.  

Lakewood, OH area has been all the hype and it looks like the sales price is dropping the further East you venture towards W117th street.

Prices here are more stable than they have been in Calgary and Edmonton (we haven't seen the large appreciation, but we also didn't see the price drop that they did a while back). 

Maybe that will change towards the end of the year if I start to see any deals but I believe the Fed will be forced to drop rates precipitously in the next 24 months or so and borrowing will again be advantageous. 

Knocking out improvements over the holidays, and selling beginning of the year when interest rates drop and home prices increase due to demand.

Values drop, sometimes drastically, rents go down as quality of tenant declines; cost of operstimg properties increase, and governmental interference, especially in the form of rent control, can slash values and profitability severely. 

Does one include heat and water versus the other that is separately metered?
