Decreasing jobs and decreasing population means you won't need rent control.

The value is not going down but you will see price decreases from pressures of qualified buyers and high interest rates.

In San Francisco county for example population decreased 7.4% and house prices decreased 6% so a decline in population should impact house prices?!

However, you can take some comfort in the fact that home prices are unlikely to decrease due to supply constraints.

On average, you increase your fees without decreasing any risk. 

My one property in West Philly went up 100% while both neighboring properties decreased in value!

Of course, what they won't and should try is things which decrease the cost to build new buildings...

Rates good in increments of 15 and 30 days.high six to low nine is correct for 30 year fixed DSCRNo: syndications, property needs work to rent, ARV, cap rate doesn't matter, no STR rents, no bad credit history such as modification or covid excuse... and a list of outs.The number of players decreased and their rules continue tightening, though rates are better than a month ago.

Despite recent challenges, Los Angeles continues to outperform the broader Western region, which had a higher vacancy rate of 11.9% and lower average asking rent of $178 per unit in Q1 2024.Asking and Effective RentAsking rents in Los Angeles decreased marginally by 0.5% in Q1 2024 to $234 per unit, following a more substantial 2.8% decline in Q4 2023.

I would use current interest rates and terms for your refinancing calculations in case rates do not decrease.
