Hey @Joy Daniels, I read everything I can all the time.I read a few blogs that go over products and some design.

Would you like to hop on a call and go over product more in depth?

However, it often results in lower profit margins and less control over product quality and delivery times.

Remember what crashed: it was not the economy - it was the lending system that crashed with sub-prime loans, which had also lead to an over production of housing nobody needed and was pure speculative.

I don't know the area like you but overproduction and a shrinking renter population seems like a bad combo.

, in order to prevent an overproduction scenario.Do you think I should get info about how easy is it to get construction permits in a certain market?

We are all troumaticed from what happened ten years ago, but that was not an economic recession, it was a sub-prime mortgage crisis combined with a overproduction on new homes (a LOT more supply than demand, often driven by speculation and hot money).

The over-production from solar is purchased by the utility.

This time, inventory is VERY tight - we had a massive overproduction in 2004-2007 and have seen inventory levels rise every year.

Real Estate has only seen one real crash in the recorded history and that was inflicted by Wall Street's subprime loan stimulated overproduction.
