Risks of purchasing properties in November and December

Kyle A. Isaacs
Posted

Hello BP members - 

My strategy consists of purchasing and holding properties in the vicinity of military towns and I'm currently pursuing a deal in one of those markets.  However, the thought of purchasing a property in November makes me nervous due to limited real estate transactions (purchases, PCS, moves, etc.) in those specific markets.  My contractor historically completes jobs before schedule and I'm concerned about holding an empty property for the next 2-3 months.

Has anyone else experienced this in the past?
