So get as much money as you can right now.No one here has a crystal ball, but you don’t have to be a soothsayer to know that the Coronavirus Crisis is going to have a deep impact on the economy.

I purchased a 3 unit building in Stamford, CT last year prior to the pandemic. 

The vacation rental market has been boosted during the pandemic because people opt not to travel traditionally (cruises, Mexico, Hawaii, etc) so the west coast discovered Southen Utah.

During the pandemic, people had no place to travel so they rediscovered STG in a whole new light.

But that was pre-pandemic when the condos were half the price they are now.Hurricane is a fun area, but the waiting list for an STR permit is 10 years. 

My house value (according to Zillow, etc.) has risen 5% since this announcement :) Intel did this in Washinton county Oregon when they spent 10 billion on fab plants 10 years or so ago right in the middle of the GFC that single handedly kept this part of Oregon from Cratering.. my Daughter has worked for intel for 16 years now and since pandemic no longer has to go to the office..

Growth is large compared to what these cities had in a pre-pandemic era so I don't think that it's fluctuations rather than new trends.

As this pandemic seems to linger here in the United States, I've started to run into the problem of banks closing departments that were previously financing investment properties, that have shut down these departments until further notice.

"... because now locals or even people who moved in during the pandemic, are realizing that it’s too expensive to live there,”Why would that be?

We have houses on the market for $100k that could be fixed and sold for $400k if not more - it's really exceptional here with the influx of WFH people since the pandemic, as if vacation homes weren't already a goldmine!
