Locking people in their homes, cancelling evictions, halting foreclosures, artificially low interest rates, and the extreme likelihood of inflation have driven residential real estate prices higher in many areas. 

Not sure what rent numbers you are using, and, most comperables reflect the past; not present or inflated future.

Inflation on Real Estate is going crazy everywhere.Buy it now is my vote!!

I've spoken on this topic on my YouTube channel, maybe thats a better place to start learning.Commercial and industrial allow for greater equity deployment, NNN options reduce risk from inflation increases.

Imo it’s a good idea to continue to hold some RE assets so you benefit from the likely continuing inflation of asset prices and rent appreciation due to current monetary policy, etc.

The Federal Reserve wanted more inflation and now we have more inflation.

I don't plan to move anytime soon and I have no debt that I can think of except this new place I'm getting I just figured hey if I'm gonna buy a place to beat possible rising inflation I rather buy hard assets than stocks , crypto or bitcoin.

Small multi family prices in my area (Pompano) are inflated.

The gov. is injecting too much dollars into the market so any hard asset is going to appreciate hardly to combat the inflation.

This is inflating the price which reduces affordability and then increases rental demand with little supply driving up rents.
