I would turn off every shut off and then open one at a time and see where prerssure is lost.

Big developers where not investing as much anymore, land flippers where left with unwanted inventory and if you for example now wanted to do an agricultural business and bought land in some places, the math would never makes sense.The good thing is as you mentioned some small towns are thriving because of the expat presence, similar to what happens in the US with "gentrification" the expats attract the digital nomad crowd that works from the beach, surfs, love great coffee shops and restaurants etc.

The network may have shut me down.   

Make sure you are registering with the county you operate in for a biz license and with the state division of hotels and restaurants and get a $2M+ liability policy.My company started as a mgmt company for just my and my partner's properties it then grew from there.  

I have also NOT been bullied here - no one can bully me - I am much too strong for that - but I am known for shutting bullies down when I witness them attacking the innocent. 

They tend to attract big companies, hospitable systems, cool downtowns with good restaurants, lots of events, and are usually a 1-2 hour drive from a major metro and airport.

It was a bit of a nightmare negotiating as I am considered self-employed and of course during 2020 the entertainment industry was completely shut down.

Than, when an organization devises how-to and does it via pooled funds to operate at slimmer margins so they DO add rental inventory, next everybody howling gotta shut em down because now they can't buy homes at price they want......... 

They are free of charge (except for whatever you buy to eat / drink from the restaurants)Would love to see you there!

His motel has been shut down since COVID-19 for not being up to code, now, he has renovated it and water/electricity is running.
