Flippers - I'm advising clients to pass on deals where DOM are high across the board.

I am on the board of CFRI, our local REIA and I know we have dozens of agents and investors that have their license if only to list and buy their own properties, but could recommend some to you. 

Quote from @William Stewart: Hi BP nation I rent a property out by the room. 

Hi there,I own a handful of longterm rental properties in Chicago and have sat on an HOA Board for many years.

This included some landmark deals including Rockefeller Center’s $3.5B loan and Miami Beach’s Fontainebleau $1.2B refinancingAlternative lenders filling traditional banking gaps with short-term solutions which has already begun a cycle of consolidation that will likely continue and accelerate in 2025The Office Sector Divide:CBD property values are down 50.7% from 2021 peaksClass A office properties seem to be in their own vacuum of prosperity with trophy properties commanding premium rents ($100+ PSF nationally, up to $247 in top markets) with strong occupancyHybrid work continues impacting older building valuations which have not faired as well, but this may begin to rebalance as more companies are instituting mandates to return to physical officesChallenges & Opportunities:$1 trillion in loans maturing by 2026Interest rates up from 3.5% (2021) to 6.74% (2024)Experts such as AEW’s Michael Acton and Blackstone’s Nadeem Meghji see the best entry point in the last 15–20 years and we agreeMarket Outlook:Current market conditions present unique opportunities, with inflation-adjusted prices at historic lows and yields at decade highs.

Used what I know from wholesaling to come up with the estimations The numbers is used are based on a these assumptions:- Cost to build* (2024) = 150/sqft National average, 141/sqft Tennessee Average (Source: Houzeo  https://www.houzeo.com/blog/how-much-does-it-cost-to-build-a-house-tennessee/#:~:text=The%20average%20cost%20per%20square,idea%20of%20the%20construction%20costs.)- All in Cost = Cost to build * Square foot  - Sales Price = All in Cost + (All in cost * 20%)* Covers contractor and soft cost on either fee based or cost+- Profit = (Sales price - (Sales Price * 7%))* - All in Cost   accounts for agent fees and closing cost- Initial List Price = Sales price + 10%      A buffer to test market absorption- Break Even being All in cost, point where everyone is paid except me. - List price is to test the market absorption at "x" price. 250k land + build.

Some wholesalers may see this as a hurdle or prefer to avoid the oversight from real estate boards.2.

I can see how Gatlinburg/Sevierville/Pigeon Forge has an oversupply (even though SMNP receives the most annual visitors per year of any national park and double that of the #2 NP)… though, from what we’ve watched in the last year and gathered from our realtor in Knox, both Knoxville and Chattanooga homes are still going for over asking price which would indicate an under supply, no? 

This focus gives you a national reach, and that oh-so-important factor; scalability.
