The market is hot in the North Shore area due to low inventory, but there are still deals to be found!

@Kody Bybee I think @Remington Lyman sold more Columbus properties alone in the last 6 months...if you are including SFR and MF it feels like the numbers are low...on market MF transactions are pretty low in Columbus....there were 567 MLS MF transactions in Columbus in the last 6 months...nearly 17,000 SFR in the same period...I don't know...is it possible that only 1% of all inventory is purchased by out-of-state buyers....

The inventory is very low, therefore, it's challenging finding and landing great deals but I'm still optimistic and looking every day.

There are many attractive suburbs and neighborhoods to invest in throughout Chicagoland but if your intention is to invest in multi-family then you'll find far more inventory in Chicago.

I would recommend starting to look at on-market property in each location to see what the inventory looks like.

While there may be appreciation opportunities in other markets, it seems like the inventory is getting pretty low.Would love to hear what you end up choosing and why, when you do make a decision.

Any informed or educated investor in San Francisco would never let a condo sit vacant because a condo (in most cases) is not subject to rent control as @Yonathan Randolph correctly pointed out.The guidance we have shared with many of our clients during Covid-19 is to be aggressive with the pricing of their condos because of the one two punch of both anemic demand and high inventory in this property type.

DC inventory is at all time historic lows.

I am planning to only live there for 5-7 years and hoping to turn it around and sell it later with a good price.I am nervous that I am buying at the top now as the market has already priced in the low interest rate + low inventory + people want to get out of the city.

Do I see enough inventory down here that would allow you to implement a big acquisitions operation?
