My past investments have skyrocketed but not feeling that in the future.

Interest rates are not going down and home prices are not going to skyrocket.

Due to the upkeep and expenses of the land I would probably only go after it if you think it's a sure bet to sky rocket or it will present a development opportunity down the road.

Last year, rent growth fell off, occupancies dropped, insurance skyrocketed 4X, and interest rates rose (if floating).  

Over the past 12 months the number of BK’s we have seen for our portfolio has skyrocketed.

I'm curious for those of you who currently own investment properties in those areas: Are you worried about insurance premiums skyrocketing and potentially being left without property insurance (like some places in Florida)?

You'll reap the benefits in the long term when it's more widely accepted by renters here with the cost of living skyrocketing (it's a little better in Tucson compared to PHX, but still).Best of luck my friend! 

We plan to use short term rentals to cover the mortgage/monthly payments but with the skyrocketing property taxes in that area, I'm concerned we may not be able to net enough. 

When the real estate crash occured, rents skyrocketed.

So the pundants saying rates will drop significantly and home prices will skyrocket - I am not an economist but I just do not see it.
