A demographic shift with more wealthy people buying there? 

It seems like a great time to revisit the conversation, especially considering how rates and market conditions have shifted over the past nine months.

I think the shift toward risk-on assets is lowering demand for safer investments like T-Bills, especially as investors look to outrun inflation beyond what CPI numbers reflect.

There are a number of meetups in Sacramento and we have been coordinating the dates among hosts so that there is no overlap - I run the West Sacramento Meetup that @Ben Howard mentioned (we gather every 4th Tuesday of the month).Here is a list of meetups that we're in collaboration with (they are all based on an abundance mindset that we have here on BP)- 1st Tuesday - REI Connect @ Roseville Meetup (reach out to @Nicole Masters)- 3rd Tuesday - Investor Mixer @ Crawdads on the River- 3rd Thursday - Folsom Out of Bounds (dates may shift a bit)- 3rd or 4th Wednesday - Real Estate Round Table (CH Cafe & Grill) - they recently relaunched and stabilizing the schedule- 4th Tuesday - West Sacramento Real Estate MeetupI'm working on putting together an easy to access list that Sacramento investors can refer to.

If this concept is unfamiliar, then continue to ignore it.In closing: The dangers of shifting the timing of your income, expenses, and business transactions.A purely mathematical exercise may indicate some beneficial timing for this or that.

I would be able to manage the finances, marketing and showings even while working but maybe not attend to the small stuff such as getting a random call to fix something stupid at 3pm when I'm 6 hours out of town or on my 30th day of night shift 12s. 

And when it comes to your due diligence, how do you ensure you’re accounting for unpredictable rehab costs or market shifts?

Conversely, if one side of the house sits on unconsolidated fill or on silt, it would settle or shift over time - once again, causing cracking.

Hi @Catherine Javier,Your options each have pros and cons, but let’s break them down strategically:Renovate and Shift to MTR/STR: This could maximize cash flow ($2,400+ for MTR) and offset the costs of renovations.

I’ve noticed quite a few price drops in SFH in these areas in the past few weeks due to shifting market conditions.
