Ithaca is like another planet.STRENGTHS- appreciation is pretty much guaranteed, no matter how crummy your property is- student housing isn't restricted, they'll live anywhere- having an ivy league school means there's a lot of money flying around- rent is high- tons of development and growth going on- strong STR performance outside the city properWEAKNESSES- almost absurdly high prices- similarly absurdly low cap rates- pesky annual inspections required on multifamily properties- most deals happen behind closed doors, and agents tend to be very unhelpful- 5-7% cap rates typical, sometimes lowerSummary: Ithaca is a great market to park your money in and wait.
