Metro areas which do not experience hard freezes or significant moisture.

@James Masotti thankyou for all your insight, as of yesterday I'm not sure what's going on with msc due to Trump putting a freeze on federal job hiring.

Yesterday's event was a small group of just under 75 people, where we all just hunkered down at a secluded winery (in the freezing cold!)

Keep decent liquidity.Cash will be king when banks freeze up on lending.

No snow and ice to freeze thaw which causes more cap ex.pretty tough to find those areas.. 

.- 52% have implemented hiring freezes. - Four out of ten are rescinding job offers, and a similar amount are reducing or eliminating the sign-on bonuses that had become common to attract talent in the tight job market.

You may just need to check directly with the util each month during freezing weather.

And right now, I'd be pretty nervous approving someone like that for one of my units, considering if things go sideways, we have an eviction freeze with no end in sight.Have you considered the Section 8/HCVP program?

And there's a freeze here on short term rental permits so legally we wouldn't be able to rent short term anyways.

When they go the W2 route like they did to loan officers the realtor market will freeze up and look like ghost town.If agents have to go W2 instead of LLC/1099 its an income crushing event and will scare off the masses. 1099 is great you can earn 100% and write off all your goodies through the roof but not on W2.
