Do homes sit a bit longer than usual?

If you are going to lock in that debt and let it sit, it's not wise.

Quote from @Shaqiul Chowdhury: Hello all,I fully renovated a property in Decatur, GA but it has been sitting in the market for a while and I'd much rather keep it for a few years and watch it appreciate further than take a loss as it is a great property in a great part of Decatur.

If you're only getting a 7% ROE, but a new deal would earn you a 5% ROE, you may want to just sit tight.

Flips are sitting on the market longer now with higher interest rates - I just walked through an open house of a flip in San Francisco.

Your current leases with your tenants might already be illegal, and you might already be sitting on a massive amount of potential liability.

I currently sit at $258K to go on the mortgage and did this through a small bank, which I believe approved me for such good financing at the time.

In the last couple of months I've bought ownership interests in 20 properties and 51 mortgages, all while sitting on my couch.

Find a way to hit your goal and in 5 years or 10 years when you look back, you'll be sitting on a really nice portfolio. 

Sitting on the sidelines has risk.
