However we often find our electricians get more expensive the longer we use them so we are constantly looking for additional electricians.

Thanks guys we are moving to the next town over Lexington.

As we are in the midst of the winter, how is everyone getting creative with leasing up properties?

It is very unlikely that you'll have problems/be investigated for just one instance, but repeatedly doing this will absolutely raise red flags these days.

We are buying more than we have ever bought.

My partners and I (3 of us) are based in Miami FL (not the easiest market at the moment) we are all realtors / brokers and investors, each have 20+ years of experience down here, have done multiple ground up single Family and duplex builds and currently have a portfolio of single fam and duplex properties.

Bay Park / Clairemont / Carlsbad / Oceanside are all top-tier markets that fetch top dollar (see the Yellow & Red).Move your search slightly inland, or further down South and inland, in order to get something done for 1/2 the price, with similar rents (not quite as high, but definitely not 50% less like the purchase price would be)

But, we now live across the country and managing from this far just doesn't make sense for us anymore so we are ready to sell.

My partner and I are very interested in single family homes, As we enter into a volatile real estate market we are focused on families and creating wealth through selling affordable homes.

Realistically I know that we have built into our assumptions that there will be a certain amount of days in our properties that we will not be able to bill for (and we are well below that number), yet I still worry.
