@Chris Lin,Thank you very much for spending time with me on the phone last night. 

Those who just try to copy the price model and not the operational leg, yeah they don't last long. 

I spent the last almost 3 years doing my due diligence learning the lay of the land.

My company has gone through 3 dishwashers in the last 12 months and it has been an added expense.

My last one 2 weeks ago was $47 which I pass on to the tenant.

Hi everyone,Last week, I was pulling rent comps to prepare renewal offers using my typical process: starting on Ręntometēr or Rēntcast for a rough idea of recently removed comps, then manually researching on platforms like Zillow, Apartments.com, and Facebook Marketplace.

Perhaps the only homes that will last that long are the reinforced concrete structures that David mentioned.

Our thoughts on the Yurts were like yours at first until we stayed in one in Virginia over last Christmas and it was not just a tent but a two bedroom, full bathroom, full kitchen etc...  

I know enough about a lot of things to be dangerous, but lack detailed expertise and certifications.I will say that I was extremely disappointed with my last realtors lack of construction knowledge so you will have a leg up there for sure, and you should play up that as a selling point

But, these broad market studies are so large, they are almost meaningless, in the real world.Between glut of new supply in many "hot" markets coming online, a continually softening economic outlook, inflation over last couple years making day to day items feel cost prohibitive, many average renters are strapped and seeking lower cost housing.
