How Are You Adjusting Your Investing Approach These Days?

Hey everyone, I’ve been thinking a lot about how much our approach has to shift depending on what’s happening in the market. Some folks I talk to are tightening up their buy box, while others are just staying consistent and playing the long game. Curious how you’re handling things right now — have you changed what you’re buying, or are you sticking to what’s worked for you so far? Always good to hear what others are doing to keep deals working in today’s market.

Buying newer properties built since year 2000, selling properties older than that.  Have owned properties as old as year 1840, and 1870, 1890; they're not built to any code, sometimes built by owners with limited skills, sometimes built before indoor plumbing ( easy way to tell the only bath is on the first floor next to the kitchen and no baths on second floor where there are bedrooms.  Also built before electricity, or central heat.  Even houses built as late as the 1950 were built with two conductor ungrounded wire.  And don't forget asbestos and lead based paint.
