You get REMNANT inventory.

Inventory is low, demand is high and the population already has a fair amount of cash flowing around the area.

The property ends up selling anyways but I think as the market softens here and inventory grows you will see sellers a little more desperate to sell and then you will see more appealing deals present themselves.

The majority of the deals we get are private inventory properties that are not for sale to the open market.

Best of luck to you; the SA market competition has gone up alot as there are A LOT less forclosures and inventory on the market.

The price level of 20% of BPO wouldn't get anyone's attention that has any type of 'decent' inventory.

Take a personal inventory on "how" you learn best and then make your final decision.

I don't have time to learn the economic aspects, housing inventories, neighborhood information, vacancies and rent levels along with other aspects about Tampa for just one property and then go learn about DeRidder.

In Austin it is a hot market and I'd say 80% of inventory on the MLS is already remodeled and selling for top dollar.

If you're diligent, you can find good tenants yourself.Unless I'm mistaken, realtors will only show units that are listed for rent on the MLS, so there is a lot of inventory they don't know about.
