If rents don't keep pace with inflation, you won't have enough funds to cover these inflated prices.Rents and prices are driven by supply and demand.

The demand here far exceeds the supply so there is no reason why your property should not have been leased months ago.

I know I can reach out to some mortgage brokers to connect me with a private lender for most of the mortgage and then I would just need another lender to supply the down payment and renovation money.

Yes, up, it's simple obvious supply demand metrics. 

Quote from @Adam Bartomeo: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: U also are fighting all the investor who flooded int to build new homes for rental purposes so OVER supply.. and we know a ton of those got stuck with bad builders and are being worked out so supply is going to keep coming in ..

This means that if not another house was put up for sale, in 6 months, the market center would run out of houses to sell.In August of 2024, Greenville had 3.8 months of supply.

This low inventory will continue to pressure up rents.The sales market remains hot.Sales - Months of SupplyThere are about 1.5 months of supply for our target property profile.

I brought him everything - paint, supplies, etc.
