The other options you are playing with fire as using a HELOC that is paying interest is essentially buying with 100% financing.Having no skin in the game has always been a high risk strategy and people were able to get away with it the past few years due to the money supply and inflation but I would not use that as the measuring stick.

This was so important to our business that we covered the cost of these consumable kitchen supplies for all our owners.

How do you handle contractor schedules and supply chain slowdowns?

One of the reasons there is short supply of housing is because guy bought a 5 bedroom in 1980 and he is paying $1000 a year for it.  

When the biggest buyer in the market is gone, supply balloons and rates have to go up to bring in buyers.

They just keep saying they’re having supply issues.

The need is much much much greater and demand will continue to outpace supply.

Also, keep in mind that some areas of the country that have lower-cost properties have a limited supply of property managers.

Anybody can live in the large student housing complexes but there is a much more limited supply of rental houses near the University. 

But I still believe we have a huge supply and demand issue and the government needs to do something to spur new construction.
