I stayed at a place without a TV.

If you do outsource, some management companies will cover various things like cleaning, supplies, etc. so look into that as well. 

Take that away by making it clear you will pay for, even supply, all materials. 

Here’s how it works:Population Decline or Stagnation: If the population is static or shrinking, the current housing supply meets demand, and property prices decline (in inflation-adjusted dollars).

Do you think supply with surpass demand?

we invest in non performing mortgages (and do some short term RTL's), and the indicators we look at are our inventory supply and where is the inventory.

Basically, the demand is much weaker than the supply. 

Recent zoning changes now allow for three dwellings on a single parcel, and parking requirements have been lifted in denser areas, both of which have boosted the local housing supply.

Some TV stations handle that kind of thing too.
