At the moment demand for refi is through the roof. 

I've talked about demand for real estate in major cities and a few fundamental factors that are being affected by real estate, but today I would like to talk about how serious I think this crisis will be.As some of you may have heard, we recently injected 1.5 trillion dollars into our system.

I’m providing at least 24 hour notice and trying to bunch showings together to limit the nuisance to these tenants, but they’ve demanded I be present during every single showing, even though they’re home. 

it really depends on if you have other income to supplement but lets say you decided to live off of your rental income and you decided that you were going to have minimal equity max debt on all your props then I think you look at OK what could be worse case during the GFC some markets saw 20 to 50% vacancy some saw 100 but most were 10 to 20% so take that figure and then decide if you need 6 months or one year.. this of course if you are solely dependent on your rental income for your income and have no other income from any other source.  

Thoughts on Coronavirus, and why right now is the ideal time to purchase single family rentals.While the Coronavirus has had an impact globally in different ways, the SFR rental market is extremely strong with higher demand than ever! 

I just don't know what the demand would be for a rent house in this particular area. 

Mortgage rates are based on number of applications and demand.

This is obvious - there's only an advantage to be had in refinancing for any homeowner or landlord.I was going to wait a few more weeks personally, a move that I think is validated (accidentally from a market perspective and government action I certainly did not predict) by the Fed lowering rates.For now, I'll continue to be patient and get ready to refinance when demand settles down again.

As I see and understand it, it’s simple supply and demand.

Maybe a long shot, but I heard today that Amazon and some grocery stores are hiring to keep up with all the demands for delivered goods and groceries.
