The thing that you need to keep in mind is that apples are not always apples when you are comparing properties . . what is the finish level inside each factors into sales price. 

I've read quite a bit about the Raleigh Durham area RE market blowing up because of all the corporations that continue plans to move/grow there; the eye catching announcement a while ago being Apple with their 10 year plan of adding a few hundred more employees each year.

Strasburg Bank, Apple Creek Bank, Sugarcreek Bank are some that have been here for a while, also check First Commonwealth and a great guy that just started his own business - Christopher Liebig of Nonprofit Mortgage (714) 499-5509 .   

@Carlos Ptriawan it is thought he may be selling some Apple because he thinks if Biden is elected capital gains tax will go up and he can take advantage of lower gains now.

This way apples get compared to apples, and customers know what they are on the hook for.

I'm in the reno area and we have seen strong appreciation with Tesla, Apple, Switch and other data companies moving to the area.

No you miss understand my point my point is its all regional what i can do in one market and what can be done in another is apples and oranges ..

If you sell, do it because you want to, not because you aren't making as much money as your friends claim they are making on their STR (you're comparing apples and oranges).

Required distros for tax consequence.At the same time I kinda snicker a bit since the buyer... the investor... thinks they found the next Apple or Tesla investment (and they are clearly the smartest in the room), and then go off the rails when it all goes south, I can't help but shake my head and have a small giggle.A fool and their money soon go separate ways, Yes, but don't you wonder how they got together in the first place?

Wouldn't that be the apples to apples comparison to your services?
