(The bulk of the problem is Nimby-ism and local regulations that prohibit sufficient building of new homes to meet demand.)

Tools like PropStream, Redfin, or Zillow’s market data can help you identify neighborhoods with high demand and favorable price-to-ARV ratios.

Home prices will likely vary by region, with modest increases in areas of high demand and stable job markets, while others may stabilize or decline.

I live in a VERY high demand tourist area with lots of rental properties and I have been working in property management for 5 years. 2 years ago, I ventured out onto my own because I was pregnant and wanted to work from home and stay with my baby.

There is zero demand from owner occupants and little to no demand from local investors. 

Congrats, always strong rental demand there!

The solar system adds no value to my property for rental purposes, and I may even be ripping up the roof & replacing it in the new year.Beyond sending a nasty letter through my attorney via certified mail, demanding the company come pick up their equipment, am I required to take any further action or fulfill any obligations regarding these contracts?

Northern NJ has options as well, but MTR works better in a lot of areas because there is demand.

It demands effort and persistence.

In some markets like Omaha or Phoenix..from what I’ve heard rental demand can help if the exit plan changes.
