If that wasn't the publics opinion we would have a ton more great jobs in Oregon and many other places.  

The local who lives there but commutes 30-60 min to another community because they can’t find a job to support their family in their town.That same local knows that a 4plex would be great on that lot that’s been vacant for 20 years and that there are at least 4 families who could benefit greatly from that development.That local knows that Ryan’s plumbing and Katie’s electrical companies that service 75% of the town really needs a new flex space to use as a shop, storage, and parking for their business so that they aren’t working out of their garage and can hire a couple of locals to work with them at the office and in the field.Development is different in our small towns but if locals aren’t the ones doing it, and developers aren’t coming, what happens to our kids futures?

Researching local job markets, schools, and even infrastructure projects can provide insight into potential appreciation and cash flow.You might want to explore markets in the Midwest or South, which often have lower entry points and better cash flow potential compared to California.

Get a job in property management.

There’s a ton of investment pouring in, job growth, and a growing demand for housing.

First of all, amazing job!

Just looking at Zillow I’m having a hard time making the numbers work between prop taxes, insurance, management on 20% Down vs cash currently earning 5% (albeit that 5% going away soon with rate cuts)  To be completely honest, there's not much right now that will give you decent cashflow without getting into a full rehab.

When something goes wrong, you can find the best contractor for the job, who can make the repairs right away, and now your tenants are happy, and you have minimized the time you would have spent speaking to your tenants about the delay or fighting a warranty company.

They did a great job.  

However while people in Windsor doesn't have the luxury of high paying jobs that GTA residents have, is it just a temporary fever of buying houses, or there is really something going on in this city ?
