And in fact, we are just sitting and holding onto lots until they are able to be fully permitted already as is.

It’s about uncovering high-demand niches that hold up even during fluctuations in the broader market.What I’m describing aligns partly with absorption, but I’m looking for a tool that allows me to drill down into the components of that absorption rate—filtering by factors such as the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, home type, amenities, and more.Do you see merit in this approach?

If not holding any NMLS license, I would think twice.

I was shown about a handful of their holdings in the Houston, Memphis, and Little Rock markets, but the cash flow and CoC returns were less than $100 per month and 2-4% after factoring in additional expenses like 7% vacancy and 10% maintenance per month to go along with 20% down and conventional mortgage.

Not thrilled that it appears to be going up, but glad to know that we aren't the only ones experiencing longer hold times.

So if I am looking at an asset as a 10 year play - I look more at the location, schools and how has this market performed in the past excluding covid and 2008 which were extenuating circumstances.Reality is right now shorter term plays do not work based on numbers and cost of financing - we went through this same thing in 2001-2004ish timeframe where properties would appreciate 2-3% per year and after buying costs and closing costs - you were not making money on assets unless you performed the labor or found a really good deal.this is how real estate "typically" is - which is why everyone always says location location location - because after a decent holding period, you will win.

(Probably net more cash (75%-80) than they would from selling. (8-10% in selling costs, plus 15%-25% federal taxes and depreciation recapture, and 8-10% state income tax means netting only 55-69%.) and then Hold until they pass.

All you are going to do is put a deposit on it, hold it, and then try to resell it into a much smaller network than it is on now.
