Hello,I am based in St.

Housing is approximately 35% of cpi (inflation number)Housing while it’s based on current rents is lagging based on how it’s calculated.So to get to 2% inflation what do you think has to go down???

We chose Oak Island because of the entry cost and ability to acquire a property in very close distance to the ocean, and also restaurants, for a lower price point.

I know Brentwood is mostly nice but Pittsburg could be iffy based on certain neighborhoods.

Nationally, the numbers should be down at least -20%, based on permits.

DSCR loans are based off of down payment, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth.

I shop it every year and the most recent company I work with has been really good with pricing but still doesn't make sense based on our 15 year history of having no claims and paying out every year.   

Your best bet will be talking to a local bank, they have more ability to lend on property not currently occupied. 

The ability to even utilize a BRRRR strategy with 2-4 units while the larger MFR will make you find it and pay heftily for it.As for the markets, I would lean Cleveland and Indy personally.

Not sure if interesting, but my buddy just launched a tool to help find off market properties across the US based on tax delinquencies, probate, pre-foreclosures...etc.
