National vacancy rates have remained flat in the first half of 2024, following a 90-basis-point increase last year, with major metro areas showing particular resilience.

I am still working through finding a good lender, of the many i have talked to only one so far hasn't flat out told me no.

Also look at LOCAL areas to invest in, and in what (single family homes, three-flats, etc.).

And unlike HOAs most are not going to flat out ban STRs, but rather try to collect taxes/fees from those that want to run them.

A friend has a two-flat investment property, with both units currently rented out.

I just saw all my insurance policies come down for the first time (renewal last month) and my condo association is expecting a flat or decrease at renewal.  

As a San Jose licensed property manager and investor, a 5% flat fee can be reasonable depending on the property. 

with the market flat, contractors booked up, materials expensive and tremendous competition for deals it is very, very difficult for a new investor at this time.i've used hard money and also bought with cash and then financed the rehab.

Sometimes even with referrals and trying to vet an operator they still fall flat when it comes to execution.

It varies from county to county on how they handle it and some give great exemptions or a flat reduction to value.
