Rent must keep pace with equity growth (appreciation) otherwise the investor is increasing their risk. 

I tried accessing DORA's website but could not find that info.there are lots of good schools. you have to decide if you learn better in a class setting or online self-paced.

Evening team, I'm searching for good quality and trustworthy general contractors in the Pensacola/ Milton/ Pace, Florida area for my first rehab on my next deal.

I live in Leavenworth WA and my husband's uncle just moved to Richland from the Bay area and is loving the change in pace of life!

Or will it be a slow and steady pace, and best if we start with BRRR deals? 

I did a couple long term live-in "flips", but nothing at a quick pace (hence first "serious" deal).

I suspect that we will all be waiting a lifetime to see rates back to were they were 2 to 4 years ago.. so I would not bank on that.. as for pricing.. if its a place to live then you certainly can just wait and see.. its not like your homeless or need to move other than you don't care for your neighbors.. markets always slow about now.. what will be telling in my mind is were we are at next Feb March April in the buying season as it were.I was in a conference this week here in Vegas and some of the speculation is that many of the commercial type loans that had 5 , 7 and 10 year calls  are going to stress those that had max leverage.. as the rates rise the cap rates rise to keep pace thereby devaluing the properties.. to the point some of these investors are going to need to bring some to significant amount of fresh capital to pay down their debt to get a refi.. and that will stress those assets and there could be a real buying opp in that sector.. at least that's what I gleaned from the talk I listened to yesterday... hope you find that dream home in the country !!!

Prices can't continue at the rapid pace that it was on. 

Even with crazy high rents, when you have to get into a property for 1mil, it's just hard for the returns to out pace the cost of capital, especially when you factor in all the other costs.The oddity with the last observation is that without capabilities these markets also tend to be the biggest challenge from an execution standpoint for someone just starting out. 

What I do know is that prices cannot continue at the pace that it was on.
