Househack properties in 2024 sold 1-2 weeks faster than they did in 2023.Deals are tougher to negotiate as well. 2 of NYC's surrounding Counties (Westchester & Suffolk) are averaging above asking price sales on 2-4 family properties. 

Quote from @Zach Howard: Quote from @Jonathan Greene: If you are looking at properties in the US only on Zillow, and not seeing them in person (I know you are in Hong Kong), this is just an effort in futility because you can't underwrite single-family or small multifamily deals only online.

I have been listening to the podcasts for years and have finally gotten serious about making this move to better my families situation. 

Our volunteer fire department invites surrounding departments to participate.

Upon closing my single family construction my home had about 25% in equity on day one(in 2018 in Tennessee).

But if you know what you're doing in finding the properties and want a fixer upper, it's doable.I will say that the multi-family rental market is pretty saturated here though. 

I think most people would agree that a single family home is better than a condo for a long term rental.

It's hard to make the numbers work on a DSCR loan these days although we do have clients who do it - especially in the multi-family space.

Investing in a single-family home in LA and expecting a good cash-on-cash return will be very difficult.
