One of the best places IMO is joining the local chapter of the National REIA (CFRI, Central Florida Realty Investors), one of the biggest ones in the country and covers six counties. membership is dirt cheap for what you get..over 20 meetings per month, no pressure selling, awesome, local investors always willing to share and be honest with you.

With all the chairs (that never get used), ladders, flower pots, pressure washer, and much more, the area is not useable for anyone and maintenance of the area is so much more laborious having to move their stuff.

Cost: $120,000 for electrical, plumbing, framing, roofing, paint, flooring, appliances, windows, permits, architecture, and everything related.We had also done pressure washing, but that's relatively self-explanatory.

They can also put pressure on your tenant not to do anything that might cost them money or cause them a credit issue.

I have had quite a few more high blood pressure moments with them since I wrote my previous posts.

Normally higher interest rates would put downward pressure on prices.

I have been doing student rentals for a long time and I think one of the biggest takeaways for me is to place the responsibility on the entire group rather than just one individual.Assuming there is a deadbeat kid, peer pressure among his friends will work 1000x better than anything I will say to him.

Often we can pivot to new construction when we have housing shortages, but wood prices have tripled in the last year and steel prices have doubled, putting upward price pressure on new builds. 

They're hurting financially and just trying to pressure us.

They don't build enough housing and have upward pressure on housing/rent due to Seattle and CA being more expensive.
