California investors — what kind of deals are you looking at right now?

I’ve been seeing a mix of flips, rentals, and heavier rehab projects come through lately, so I’m curious what everyone is actually buying right now. Are you still taking on full renovations, or are you mainly looking for lighter cosmetic deals? I work with off-market and distressed properties thr...

The Fed just told apartment owners to stop waiting. Here is the playbook.

The Fed just told apartment owners to stop waiting. Here is the playbook. Yesterday’s Fed decision was expected: rates held at 3.5 to 3.75 percent for the fifth consecutive meeting. What was not expected was the tone. Three members dissented and voted to hike, the most dissents in one direction s...

Multiple Buyers Pooling Money on One Purchase — More Common Lately?

Seems like more buyers who aren't married or related are going in together on a purchase lately — splitting the down payment and planning to co-own or eventually buy each other out. Feels like affordability is pushing people toward creative ownership structures that weren't as common a few years ...

Kansas City Market Check-In: What Changed This Quarter?

Hi BiggerPockets world! Our Kansas City MLS Q2 stats just came out, and I thought a few things were worth sharing. Inventory fell 6.9% year over year, meaning we're back down to just 2.4 months of inventory across the metro; very much still a seller's market. Even with mortgage rates hovering in ...

Anyone else seeing investors sell off rentals?

I've been noticing more of my investor friends selling rentals or at least talking about downsizing their portfolios. Some are tired of higher insurance, taxes, and maintenance costs. Some because of the headaches of managing. Others are cashing out after years of appreciation. A few are pivoting...

Did low rates ruin BRRRR expectations?

Feels like a lot of BRRRR deals worked a few years ago simply because money was cheap. Investors could overpay a bit, miss rehab numbers, refinance easily, and still come out okay. Now it feels like every mistake gets exposed fast. I’m noticing the investors still buying are just way stricter on ...

What Does a Healthy Worcester 3-Decker Market Look Like?

Most people understand that a healthy real estate market is based on supply and demand. But what is that supply and demand based on? Is it just the price, or the number of buyers and sellers? I would argue that because the multi-family market is a unique mix of owner-occupants and investors, mort...

The CMBS "maturity wall" is here. Here's who is actually in trouble, and who is not. $65 billion in commercial real estate loans are maturing in the second half of 2026. If you own apartments, you have probably seen the headlines. I want to break down what the loan-level data actually shows, beca...

I back-tested the yield-trap profile. The traps lost money in a rising market.

The first post in this series claimed that some of the best-looking cash-flow ZIPs in the country were traps: high yield sitting on top of a market that's quietly falling apart. Fair question ever since: does that label actually mean anything, or is it just a spicy name for "cheap"? So I ran the ...

June CPI Falls 0.4%, Pending Sales Dip 5.4%, Housing Starts Rebound 19%

Week of July 13 recap. The inflation print this week was the one investors have been watching for. CPI came in below expectations on both the consumer and wholesale side, prices declined month over month, and the annual rate continued to slow. That has direct implications for Fed policy, mortgage...

Hi All, Would appreciate your feedback. I built a tool that cross-checks REIT filings against local market data before you trust the "hot market" narrative. Got tired of every "why you should invest in X market" article being unsourced vibes, so I built something that pulls real signals (cap rate...

Does a hot market actually mean good cash flow? I tested it and honestly, no

There's a shorthand a lot of us use without noticing: fast market equals good market. Homes go under contract in days, buyers are lined up, and somewhere in there "this market is hot" quietly becomes "this market will cash flow." Those are two different things. One is how fast the market clears, ...

Pending Home Sales Are Down Nationally—Who Cares?

It gets me: every time a national housing report drops—like NAR’s latest Pending Home Sales showing a 5.4% month‑over‑month decline—the headlines start flying. “Sales are slowing.” “Market cooling.” “Demand weakening.” I really don’t care!
