I would also point out the amount of office space is not shrinking and the vacancy rate is not getting higher.   

Do you see this trend growing or shrinking?

@Vishaal BediToronto cash flows after negative cash flowing for 3 years and you kick out both of main and basement tenants..All jokes aside US has plenty of cash flow opportunities but shrinking by the day..

Wherever you go, I highly suggest you invest in areas that are growing in population, not shrinking like CA.  

I believe we're seeing a massive shrink in the short term rental market and that is because before the virus there was an overabundance of small 1/1 and 2/2 units.Hope this helps and as always feel free to reach out!

So, it can be a way to grow quickly, but your churn rate will be high.May get you over a hump so you can afford to hire help, but you will need another strategy to not have your business shrink.

If what the PM said is right, by paying that mortgage down fast I would think you’d lose the tax deductibility as your taxable amount would shrink fast.

There's not a whole lot of separation in cap rates between A, B, & C product...which means a lot of risk in any value add propositions in the B and C product.The "Peninsula" markets (Newport News, Hampton, Williamsburg, etc.) have seen flat rents over the years (with some even shrinking).  

Your equity is shrinking as these cap rates rise and the cash flow will decrease as well for those that have to refi!

One city is growing in population the other is shrinking, in my mind the choice is clear if it is between those two.
