Are you currently holding rentals here, or are you considering entering/exiting the market?

Housing shortages have more to do with boomers living longer and holding on to their large homes and provincial red tape.

My husband and I are from Florida and have a few buy and hold properties there.

Bitcoin will not be used to pay rent or any other regularly occurring financial transaction until its value stabilizes. 

For real estate the will calculate what your return would be if you purchase a single-family home at market rate and hold it for ten years.

The newer and amenity provided properties are still holding their own but activity is down compared to COVID area.

Also are you more into buy and hold or flipping properties?

They got fundamentally sound real estate, with matching debt (10+ yr fixed rate) and budgets with the intent to hold nearly forever. 

I have a few for cash flow but I prefer equity - which I live in the Washington DC area so you are not going to be getting cash flowing rentals off the bat but if you hold them for 20 years you will not be complaining. 

Only if the tenant caused the issue can you hold them responsible for it.
