Are you:- Buying: Taking advantage of the demand and potential for long-term appreciation?

.- I'm particularly keen on areas where there's a high demand for single-family homes.- Any insights on recent market trends or upcoming developments in Pittsburgh would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance for your help!

That tool really sounds ideal...I think in most major markets now that are either saturated or balanced in terms of supply/demand now more than ever amenity rich properties are a must. 

Gotcha a in other words rents could soften or are softening based on supply demand issues.. thank you for clarifying that.

@William TseChoosing the right property involves market trends, rental demand, neighborhood quality, and future development.

We originally hoped to rent as a mid term rental in a smaller town with a hospital, but the market quickly became oversaturated for the small demand so we decided to shift to long term rentals on both sides.

A good PM can also help you determine what types of properties are in demand, what neighborhoods to focus on, and maybe even cross-check any properties you find to see if they are good investments.

Ya remove the demand. 

There is an excess of people (demand) who want a limited amount (supply) of something in a specific area.

As others have stated, new ground up construction is a different animal then renos/etc.
