NAR considered job growth, financing, renter who plan to purchase a home, migration to these metro markets, number of renters who are planning to buy as well as homeowners who plan to move.

If you're looking at buying a rental or house hack in the Triangle, then you should consider short term rentals. 

Ya playa I'm not buying what you're selling.

If it is a emotional support dog (basically a pet with papers they buy online, mostly to find a way to get a pet into a rental), ask for documentation from a local medical professional (NOT anything online). 

Be sure to check and see if there’s any tax benefits to you from buying from the non-profit.

This my friends on BP is just the reality of Real Estate you have two basic methods One mom and pop keep their day jobs and start buying long term hold rentals as they can afford them and if they like it they keep at it..Two you jump in the game and try to make money transactionally IE RE Broker  Flipper Wholesaler MLO  leasing agent etc etc.. this also is a long term ramp.. what the Guru programs attract generally speaking is those that get excited think they can somehow buy a program ( any program pick one) and its going to jump start them to this mythical financial freedom everyone talks about..

Depending on your goals and how you are buying your properties you may notice that certain areas are difficult to cash flow in NH depending on your strategy and what type(s) of properties you are looking at. 

According to NYC, STR is hurting housing affordability just like normal people can buy a house or condo near the Time Square and Madison Garden. 

I want to go the buy-and-hold route, and I am interested in finding a duplex that will provide a steady cash flow, a high appreciation value and does not need renovations.

When most people say don't buy (like in 2009), it's usually a great time if there are strong underlying fundamentals.
