Randy Buff The Gap Between Seller and Buyers Price Expectations
25 September 2024 | 2 replies
Hi Randy,The reason small apartment buildings haven’t seen the same price drops as larger properties comes down to a few key factors: 1031 exchange buyers inflating bids, strong demand for limited supply, and sellers holding firm on prices since they’re not under financial distress.
