In a similar email from BeyondPricing,"Are you seeing a slow start to 2024?

I took extensive video and pictures when i moved as the house was not, to most people in move in condition, obviously cleaned but very cheap and very old carpet, large areas of rooms that weren't entirely painted weird hardware sticking out of walls, screw holes or remaining screws and nails, several patched but not painted areas, tons of areas with drawing, water, oil marks on the walls (from a centimeter to 1 foot) etc etc! 

So they are playing it slow and in no rush to give away deals without it first sitting on the market for a SOLID few months.

Speeds are generally decent and no one has ever complained about it being two slow.

Capital requirements are much lower and you get to go slow and learn the process. 

@Brian Eastman I was considering withdrawing a property out of a self directed IRA and adding it to my personal portfolio as the cares act removes the penalty for up to $100k. 

You don't want to be in the middle of a time sensitive transaction where your money is on the line and be working with someone who doesn't answer their phone or is slow to respond to emails.

Reason being, real estate, transactionally, is a pretty slow business. 

Also my property management company says they are having trouble hiring good people so they are taking 2-3 months to turn a unit and prepare for the next tenant.I'm really frustrated with this slow turn time.

Slow and steady still wins the race.
