During holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas, New Year) there is little "movement" too - plus, if you are in the northern states, you have to deal with nasty weather too - so I would say mid-Nov to end of January is the worst time to list. 

I quickly learned Class C doesn't appreciate much in my medium size city Mid-Western market (pop. 162,000), but neither did the values ever crash. 

Average home price in Bellingham is in the mid 400s, and the prices go very quickly.

Or purchase a 5plex out of state for the low to mid 200's that brings in a 20% rate of return. 

You have to read up on the laws of your state , But if the paper road was never deeded to the township , there is a good chance you own to the mid point of the road .

Since it uses R-22, it's probably from before the mid-1990s or so. 

My credit score is in the mid-700s. 

And of course very market specific.But when you look at lower value assets lets say any home that can be purchase for 100k and under which is a great portion of the rental stock in the mid west.. most of those renters pay 700 to 1000 for the house and if they bought them their all in payments would be less than rent and by a lot in many cases.. yet they still don't buy.. 

Average home price in Bellingham is in the mid 400s, and the homes at these prices go very quickly.The owner might be willing to consider owner financing, but I currently have available no money for a down payment (tied up in 3 other properties right now)So, who has innovative recommendations for how to get into this?
