Yes, it’s still a seller’s market.Depending on who you ask, it’s either a return to normal and everything is going to be great again, or the last gasp at the top of a market cycle before the unemployment/stimulus runs out.Nearly everyone agrees that taxes are going to have to go up to pay for all of the government rescue programs.What kind of taxes and how it affects RE remains to be seen, but it’s not usually good - particularly if they target 1031 exchanges, alter the RE depreciation schedules, eliminate the 25K loss that can be taken against ordinary income, etc.Similarly, we won’t know the effects of the mortgage forbearance programs, and eviction suspensions in some states, until later this year.But for right now, yes, things still look pretty good out there (if you’re selling, anyway).

I don't know.I think right now the eviction suspension is for non-payment, not for conduct. 

Near the Pearl and in the Med Center are two areas that are doing very well for STR/vacation rentals.

@Roy HuHi Roy, I have 2 in the LQ area and like John said, it’s important to have a unique, well designed/themed property in order to do well with STR’s in this area in my opinion.

Also there are a lot of competition for these homes on the rental sites so be prepared to put some money into it to theme it up to appeal to the families that rent these.

I'd probably look on the med-to-higher end of properties there, as you don't want to deal with the hassle of the lower tiers from far away.

Two or three buyers that walk, and the seller's position may soften and your "bottom-feeder" reduced offer may start to look a whole lot better if there is no one else on the dance floor – then you start making money.Hmm, Do you see a theme here?

There are also some spots near the Med Center that work well, and also near St.

I would even venture to say we might see an uptick in numbers as the majority of guests do not have to fly to get here and our small towns probably feel less vulnerable than the theme park or beach areas. 

Your property should have a theme or design that makes people choose it from the crowd.
