The combination of fewer buyers and longer Days to Sell resulted in fairly significant increases in Active Inventory, another contributor to downward price pressure.

does that buyer profile have more or fewer reasons to buy here moving forward?

The mold mitigation guys will ALWAYS find dangerous mold!

I'm a newbie, but that sounds dangerous.

One of the bigger challenges I see in the Medellin market for STR are the laws where a building needs to have I believe 70% owner approval in order to convert into a hotel license to allow short term rentals and therefore the buildings which allow STR are much fewer in the city and prices tend to be inflated.

I believe this idea is dangerous and is just another form of virtue signaling by a select few.

Especially if I am just getting started with real estate, only focusing on cash flow to me is a dangerous move.

For example, If a home was worth $100,000 and their levy code was 1% to generate $1,000 in revenue; it appeared they would assess it for $90,000 and raise their levy code to 1.1111% they would still receive $999.90 in taxes but have a lot fewer phone calls and challenges to their assessments.A few suggestions:  pull comps from January 2021; adjust for condition (if your tenant trashed the place or let the yard go, needs TLC, etc. point that out); adjust for location (is your home on the non-view side of the street or backing to the busy street or under the power lines; etc. 

Agreed, my first impression was this shouldn't be possible and could be dangerous.

So whichever avenue has fewer costs and less risk, use that form of payment and leverage it to purchase a property that will pay for all that debt you used and more!
