@Alyssa Miller That is just the market in this area right now - I know that sounds simplistic, but current market values (as in, what people are willing to pay for properties, 'people' meaning a large proportion of owner occupants who want to get into a house while rates are super low and they've often missed out on several homes already due to bidding wars) are high enough that it's not an environment in which investors are going to find a lot of deals.It's kind of like trying to 'hack' toilet paper at the beginning of Covid - the supply/demand curve is not working in your favor.But, nationwide, the number of properties going into the first stage of foreclosure is skyrocketing right now - I don't think we'll be immune to that despite our strong tech industry.

Now we can mitigate that somewhat with A class SFR's and our west coast stuff is a little easier but no immune..

However, CRE assets are not immune to hedonic regression since cap rates ultimately dictate investment value.But, yes, overall simple is always better.P.S. love the "no-timer" comment!

I've told him to leave, given the 3-day notice and he keeps bringing up renter rights like he's immune from any consequence.

This is like any other virus - only 2 options, 1. the suceptible die out and 2. herd immunity.

Redbud and crabapple are virtually trouble free, native dogwood gets anthracnose (another one of those asian diseases where there's no immunity) so you have to spray it with fungicide.

@Yoree Washington, the data suggest that Alpena is not immune from the issues that other municipalities within MI suffer from.

Paperstac is not immune to this and cannot control this.

Might be because of my approach to business dealings and experience that makes me feel immune to most matters others can't sleep with, I try to think before engaging mouth and I never provide anything in writing with thought.

Nothing will give you unlimited immunity from all risks in the business world.
