Hey Natasha,It is a great place to start, plenty of inventory whether its for flipping, BRRR-ing, or holding at affordable prices while still having decent rents (with or without section 8)With that, it is a pretty competitive market.

Lower rates could losen up inventory and that might moderate things as well. 

I didn't count them in inventory when I sold ;) Someday, when I get that $1m listing, I'll bust them out! 

Some will offer 'sale prices' on inventory homes (homes that are withing 60-90 days of being complete or are complete to get them off of their books).

First impressions are everything, especially in a competitive market.The inventory of active listings has surged by 50.41% to 5,159 homes, providing more options for buyers.

Do an inventory of unit rental rates. 

I've seen some good deals pop up lately as builders have been trying to sell inventory that has been sitting. 

Recently, buyer's agents have to jump immediately, each time a new listing hit, due to such limited inventory, huge competition, and listing agents not placing or honoring offer deadlines. 

Right now, we’re looking at 4.66 Months of Inventory.

The way Wayne County PA handles its OTC property inventory is to hold auctions four times a year.
