I may have picked a less optimal time to begin investing in real estate but rates are still on the lower end and I'd like to take advantage. The feedback I get is that the rehab/flip market in Henderson/LV is saturated.
What other strategies do investors turn to when it looks like the market is about to turn?
Reaching ceiling or not is a guess.
Like the other agent said on the other post on BP, “half people feel that correction is coming, the other half people feel that the price will go up for at least a few more years.
Nobody knows the future.
By reading Las Vegas housing data and articles online, I’m the half group of people who feel that the house price in Las Vegas will go up for at least 4 more years before any correction may happen.

We are setup to have our best year ever in Vegas for 2018! So much economic growth, shortage of inventory, and demand through the roof.
In regard to strategies, I agree given the factors above flips are very hard to find right now unless you are buying from off market buyers. We have seen a lot of investors do a hybrid of buy and hold and flip. Meaning they speculate and capture some short term appreciate of 6 months to a year and then do their flip. This allows them to pay more than they normally would for the property to win the bidding wars, capture positive cash flow in the meantime, and the add more equity by rehabbing, then sell.
