I’m going to wait until prices come down.​Is this a housing bubble? ​

Should i use part of a home equity loan to put a down payment on another house to rent out? 

When I bought my second house hack, I was in way over my head, created more debt, and stress.

My brother and I have sent out direct mailers, very generic we buys houses cash with a phone number and a we buy house sign for the picture.

I told them when they moved in the hot tub and AC were luxury items that came with the house, but if they break I would not be repairing or replacing them.

When I look at the comparables over the last 3 months the average sale price is about $235 per square foot, which would put me only at a resale value of $495,000 ...not worth it.However, there are comps from January of 2022 through July of 2022 that strongly support $300 per square foot putting the resale price of the house at $630,000... totally worth it.My real estate agent, that I've  worked closely with for the last 4 years and have probably done about 15 deals with, ensures me she will definitely get $595,000 minimum for this property, and if I knew that for sure I would do the deal.

I have seen more and more people put houses that should only be a long term rentals into service as a STR, as well as paying prices that will not cashflow. 

I am telling anyone that will listen that they should be buying houses now.

We had used Home Depot and Lowe’s, and the house was still not done.  

Cold outreach is all about volume because you are trying to find the 0.5% of sellers who are motivated to sell.If you are looking for leads of sellers who are already looking to sell, you are better off doing inbound marketing such as SEO or PPC, or buying leads from companies that run their own PPC campaigns, which are called PPL (Pay Per Lead).For PPL, I would recommend https://propertyleads.com/
