The main takeaway from these The main takeaway from these data is the lack of inventory. Despite the high prices not many people want to sell. I could blame prop 13 or lack of building in San Diego but apparently, lack of inventory is happening all over the nation.
I wonder if there has been a cultural shift to people now renting out their old home rather than selling? Why not just rent out the old house with low-interest rates and easy credit. With low monthly payments, it makes more financial sense in the long term to become a landlord. You can even make a great yield from places like AIRbnb.

Need advice from rental Need advice from rental investors. I’m trying to choose which out of state rental market to buy into.
Paying all cash, because I cannot get a loan due to eliminating some inventory in business.
With only 90k to work with, I’m looking at very nice houses in good Detroit and Ann Arbor suburbs. I’m also looking at condos in Dallas, because I don’t have enough money for a house. According to what I’ve read, Michigan is great for return on investment and the suburbs are relatively stable, but not as stable as Dallas, where appreciation would be good.
I plan on buying and holding. Thanks!
