I know when i travel to hotels ( which is almost every month) I check for coffee pods and will choose hotel that has them  then i bring my own pods LOL  unless its a real high end hotel and they have the ultra coffee makers  But if you have a cabin that sleeps 23 people it's much easier to just supply the drip coffee makers.

Supply is being taken off the table.

I thought  @Elliot B. was talking about installing meters on the supply and return pipes for each unit and measuring BTUs there.

I know I can reach out to some mortgage brokers to connect me with a private lender for most of the mortgage and then I would just need another lender to supply the down payment and renovation money.

Quote from @Adam Bartomeo: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: U also are fighting all the investor who flooded int to build new homes for rental purposes so OVER supply.. and we know a ton of those got stuck with bad builders and are being worked out so supply is going to keep coming in ..

This low inventory will continue to pressure up rents.The sales market remains hot.Sales - Months of SupplyThere are about 1.5 months of supply for our target property profile.

This means that if not another house was put up for sale, in 6 months, the market center would run out of houses to sell.In August of 2024, Greenville had 3.8 months of supply.

People that specifically visit a website (realtor.com, Zillow, etc.) are more likely to be serious shoppers.

It was truly the wild west.For the same reason I said several years ago the price of houses weren't going to crash due to supply and demand and the supply being so low, I believe the same thing is going to happen out here.There was an oversupply of building going on 2 and 3 years ago out here especially on the bigger cabins.

If I were wildly successful in implementing any strategy, I would keep quiet about it and enjoy my life.It's like the tale about the gold miners in California during the Gold Rush of 1849:  the only ones who made real money were the ones selling the tools and supplies to the miners.
