Over time, most have written off their losses and essentially abandoned their units...driving down values while also adding to more supply of vacant units, preventing home values to go back up.

High demand here and supply can't build fast enough in my area, dozens of calls per week from families looking to rent.

I’m also hearing that supplies are a bit harder to get.

Then, craft your strategy to take advantage of which benefits work for you, then go for it.Hope this helps.

I began out of state investing in Rochester NY in 2004 and soon discovered that even carefully crafted cash flow projections seldom capture the full impact of the repairs/maintenance you will incur, especially in the upper Midwest (Toledo, Cleveland, Buffalo, Rochester, Erie) where the winters can be absolutely brutal. 

Cabinets- Clark’s cabinets (message me for contact info)I dunno if there is a cheaper place for granite but I just got mine for my own house at keystone supply outlet and they did install.

Last week, homes sold at a median of 99.6% of list price in 14.5 days, and inventory once again dropped below a one month supply to 0.8 months.

Our agreement is that we split profit 50/50, I supply the funds, he supplies the labor.

Still only a 2 1/2 month supply, could drop well under two months if sales increase now that they have open houses again  A total of 2,903 single- family houses traded hands last month, 7,815 houses were on the market without offers at the end of June, down 0.5 percent from May

There are also lots of restrictions with HOA but if you understand the rules and what you can and can't do the rest is just supply and demand.
