I'm originally from SLC, UT but moved to the Tampa Bay area (Clearwater) for the real estate investing opportunities. 

Only two things need to be checked mostly:If you can afford the house in your area and if after a year, rent can cover the mortgage, house hack will make you more net worth over time.Someone like me, living in the bay area of California, neither can afford a house near my job, nor rent can cover a mortgage.

Hi all, I'm aiming to purchase rental properties in the Milwaukee, Appleton and Green Bay areas.

Hey guys, I am a real estate agent in Panama City, FL. I'm looking to connect with some investors who are investing in the area. I'm trying to get on the investing side and want to help some investors lock up some dea...

I do the greater Tampa Bay area and right now is a Greta time to buy as we head into the peak season.

Also depending on where you are in the Bay Area, make sure you understand if rent caps apply to your situation. 

What supplier do you recommend here in the Bay Area?

Also, if you know someone driving distance to the SF Bay Area with sales experience who would want to learn more about a short-term rental business, reach out.

For example, inventory and price in Vegas,Phoenix and Austin have already reduced substantially that almost making the rate changes doesn't affect much, eg: if the house is 500k 6 months ago, it's now listed at 450k, with the 5% mortgage, one could still potentially buying at the same neighborhood.Your argument is very correct when there's a standoff between buyers and seller,eg when new listing is reduced but closed sales is reduced as well, such as in Bay Area,CA.
