It's hard to stand out.There are some owner-occupied segments with people who share motivating factors for selling their home.Seniors with Long-time Ownership: often ready to downsize or transition to assistance.Homeowners with Low Financial Stability Scores (FSS): Struggling financially and likely ready to cash in on their asset.Both these categories have additional advantages in that they probably don’t haven’t been updated and may have deferred maintenance.

As long as Charlotte keeps growing that area will likely remain interesting.

Just this month we closed on a second comparable condo, with 20% down to avoid mortgage insurance.Here's my big question:Should we now pay our future savings toward paying down the remaining 80% asap, or should I continue on toward a third condo with another 20% down, immediately renting it out and covering the mortgage payment, so on so forth... 

I thrive on constructive criticism.So I have motivated seller who lists his purchase price at $99,000 and the home is in need of $50,000 worth of repairs.

I figure the higher commission will motivate an agent otherwise.Any advice?

I was not sure if I need to return the remaining and ask for the full rent in one payment. 

Further, “we’ve seen growing signs that flippers are getting increasingly good at buying properties at a discount while the premium they’re selling for has remained mostly constant,” the report notes.

Thanks for the motivation!

There are 154 on the market, so it could (and should) be right.My read on all of this is that the rise in prices doesn't show any sign of slowing, especially as inventory remains extremely low. 

The designation of opportunity zone remains in effect through the end of 2028.
