Are Investors Backing Off, or Just Getting Pickier?

[Ky Perry]

Locally in Utah, I’ve noticed fewer investors competing on every deal — but the ones who are still active seem much more selective, targeting homes that sit and negotiating hard.

If you’re investing right now, are you pulling back and waiting for the market to shift more, or just being more picky about the deals you chase?

It's a mix. Investors are waiting since they are uneasy with the economy, less money floating around, deals are harder to make work with rates, people are being conservative on adding debt/doors, etc. There's a variety of reasons but the market is not the same as a few years ago.
