Starting in August, we can't do that.

Back when I first started looking in early Feb, prices for the exact type of townhome I was looking for have jumped 50K, and it just isn’t feasible for me at the moment.

my hypothesis:-new construction: developers will take the hit in New construction by adding incentives into the market to keep market presence -used homes: will remain unsold as long homeowners can hold it and any need for sale it will be opportunities for new buyers and -for investors who buy with traditional financing it will be a breakeven market until interest start to drop and market prices to increase what do you think?

As I don't have large down payment, I am thinking to start building a portfolio with finding off market deals that have equity and do bit rehab/renovate and later get refinanace to pay off HML with a traditional lender/DSCR loan. please share any thoughts on my plan and any lending resources.

That books explains how it works and gives you all the practical tools to get started.

Lots of people complain about the "timeline" risk.Start looking for a replacement property during the marketing process of the property that you are selling.The 45 day ID period only starts on the day you sell your relinquished property.

If they are currently listed - you may just need to take the listing down before starting the loan.

Now that it is saturated, it is starting to fall off. 

@Amha Demissie it's awesome that you started in 2019 and as you mentioned, you've probably built significant equity during that time.
