3.5 situation is aggravated by a poor rental market. this is the first time I've seen this harmonic convergence of dead resale market and bad rental market------at the same time, in the same place, and across a region.
For me.. this is the shocker. I am seeing some of this as well.The dead resale market.. well YEA.
The surprise is the rental market. Folks still gotta live somewhere. I guess it's the double up factor?
I knew there would be some of that but I expected the chaos to be a net positive for the rental market not a net negative.
4. I'm sitting tight. I am alive and well precisely because my LTV across my portfolio is something in the 55% range. Had I been at 80% in mid-2000, I would be writing a very different post today.GOSPEL.
Thanks for posting.
