In this morning's paper, a private contractor offered to donate 20 acres to Maui County for a landfill for a percentage of tipping fees.

TIA I look at these things the most when looking for BRRRR cities - Rent-to-Price Ratio: Look for cities where the average rent is high compared to the average mortgage cost- Population and Job Growth: Focus on cities experiencing steady population and job growth, higher than national average- Availability of Distressed Properties: Look for cities with a supply of pre-foreclosures, short sales, and abandoned propertiesNormally bigger cities in those states should do well, houses are still somewhat affordable (comparatively) and if you do a big rehab it'll pay offThank you, @Mary Ainsworth for very valuable tips!

Hi Sahil, properties unfortunately will never pencil out in popular west coast areas.

Obviously I’m in Canada so would need a property management company so that would add to the expenses, but I don’t know, something feels right about an investment like this.

However, after meeting with a friend who has real estate experience he mentioned that he predicts in about 12-18 months there will be a downturn of the market and an influx of foreclosures due to the pandemic forebearance.I now feel like our momentum and excitement has come to a screeching halt and I am unsure of whether or not to invest in this market.I understand long term the market works itself out, however, if I bought this multifamily unit on my current income, I cannot afford for the rental market to depreciate as well which is my fear.The mortgage would be about 4K.

Looking forward to local insight and general tips.
