As for your ques if to wait, well, it depends on the market, in some parts of the country prices are still going up, slower, but still going up, other parts the prices are coming down, you know that area, what is happening there? 

I do engagement marketing in a trades focused field lending me to having very good relationships with tradespeople whom I consider friends- and I trust thoroughly.

Keep networking with locals in your market who are doing what you want to do and then you will be able to chart a path forward.

Rental market is pretty strong, there are a lot of good economic drivers.

Valdosta GA Market Update: Jan 2025Happy New Year!!

There are a number of real estate Meet ups monthly in Calgary market advertised on Eventbrite.

Most land bank properties, Detroit or Wayne County, are trainwrecks and cost more to rehab than they are worth - unless the market keeps improving.Be careful on the next one, but keep improving Detroit!

You should start with a focus on a 2 unit multifamily property in a market that you can afford to get into. 

Beyond that, real estate is largely local; in my market we are not seeing anywhere near those numbers.

Well, yes, some properties may require complete work, but others may just need cosmetic things to bring them back on the market.
