I find this data super interesting, and took the opportunity to dive into their 2025 edition this week.Nationwide they say we can expect:Average mortgage rates of 6.3%, with rates edging down over the year to reach 6.2% by the end of the year.Home prices will grow by 3.7% across the US, which is pretty modest.

If you have a business you can grow and get financially rewarded that is higher priority then leaving that.

Quote from @Paul Stewart: I've noticed a growing trend among new real estate investors in my area.

As unit count grows there is an arch of risk exposure that grows, crests, then starts dropping very fast.

So many variables can turn a deal sideways from 1 hour to the next - i.e. inspection findings, title issues, contracts, financing issues, taxes, dept. of buildings/local municipalities, etc.I'm glad to hear you made it through the challenges, and it sounds like you'll be able to leverage this experience as you grow your portfolio.All the best to you along your journey!

Glad to see you still growing!
