The water coming through the wall is due to voids in the wall, as well as, the hydrostatic pressure from the groundwater under the house.

Very high pressure on the inventory as a large public housing project is getting broken up.5) I'd say so but look to others for hard numbers.6) Extremely7) Haven't had to deal with an eviction myself, but I've heard that Will is landlord friendly. 

Where you are going to see some pressure, is in the rental market.

Really dig in to what you are buying before making your offer - don't let pressure from the market and other buyers form your decisions.

Indeed, the pressure is crazy at this point.

Less people buy real estate with lower consumer confidence, leading to more renters, and thus upward pressure on rents.

I live in a so called "cashflow market" (Milwaukee) and have always made a lot more on equity than on cash flow, even before the last 3 years.But I also know investors who have grown and managed a portfolio "city cash flow properties" for decades and have almost nothing to show for - because capex exceeded cash flow.High appreciation markets are also risky to invest - while I feel very strongly about that market not going to crash as a whole, I am not so sure if markets like TX will not come under pressure after the exuberant gains of the last years.The Midwest is the only region left with an affordability index over 100 (median family can afford a median home), so just like communicating vessels in physics we may see a market rebalancing, where remote workers will move to where living expenses are affordable (not only housing) and boom markets will see an adjustment (not a crash).And even if you are an apartment syndicator, you need cash flow to boost NOI - there is just no way around it.

There are always ups and downs but like you when you trust in God you it takes a pressure off of you. 

Rates should come down a bit, but that only means upward pressure on prices. 

Its not Moorestown or Mount Laurel- but its also not bad.
