When I am looking for a new investment property and am strapped for cash, I typically look off-market and try and find something that can a seller is looking to sell that needs minimal repairs to be rent ready and the purchase price is 80% of the ARV this way I can use private money to buy in cash, do the repairs needed then refinance on a DSCR loan and pay off the private money loan. 

Prices are too high.

Hello BP,The Producer Price Index (PPI) is a valuable metric to monitor, as it measures inflation from a business perspective (what businesses pay for services/goods) that isn't always reflected in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) or "inflation" which is commonly discussed in headlines and among other investors.

@Jordan Miller most Class A & B rental properties bought since 2021 really don't cashflow from day one.Class B will take 1-3 years to start showing cashflow.Class A, 3-5 years.Current investors keep making the mistake of looking back at deals from 5-10 years ago when prices & interest rates were both a lot lower, but NOT rental rates.

why not build in a more affordable price point. the largest two builders in America build non luxury maybe take their advice?

@Grace Tapfuma How high can housing prices in the City of Detroit go?

The right opportunities come when you focus on solving problems, not forcing deals that don’t make sense.There are sellers out there ready and willing to sell at a price that works for both you and your buyers.
