So until supply loosens buyers will be forced to get creative and pay up.I don’t think it’s the overall crazy demand like you’ve seen in single families driving up prices- there is just literally almost zero double inventory.I did three doubles last year and still shocked I picked them up at decent prices in Lakewood.

We have recently loosened our cancellation policies on most properties to remain competitive. 

Loosening some of that up or at least streamlining the process and hiring more people in those departments so that it doesn't take a year to get a building permit would be better than wasting time trying to convert unbuildable federal land into new housing developments.

The Fed cut rates by 50 basis points on September 18, initiating a new loosening cycle.

I've loosened my cancellation policies, my rates are consistent across channels, I have all 5 star reviews and for now, I'm still a Premier host.  

Some of our initial baseline, no-go, criteria when we first listed were: 600+ credit score, no evictions, no bankruptcy, and income 3x rent... however, after finding that very few interested parties were eligible to even "enter a review phase" of landlord verifications etc, we loosened up a bit and went to an objective scoring model that I tweaked from a few ideas obtained after speaking to both rental professionals in my local area and some on this forum. 

Who thinks it is time to review and loosen the meth rules?

Joints can loosen over time and create an arcing problem.Running wire isn't all that difficult if 1. you have an open attic that the wire runs through or 2. you plan on removing lath and plaster anyway to go with sheet rock.

How do I repair cracks and places where the plaster has powdered and loosened? 

That inventory will loosen up once mortgage rates drop back down.
