It's August, and time for another Las Vegas update. For a more comprehensive look at the Las Vegas investment market, please DM me for a link to our blog. There, you'll find detailed information on investing, both in general and specifically in Las Vegas. Before I continue, note that unless other...
I know a guy with over 100 doors. Some months he clears less than $1,000. Not $1,000 per door. $1,000. Total. After running an entire portfolio the size of an apartment complex, working nights and weekends, fielding calls, chasing rent, replacing water heaters, the number at the bottom of the pag...
I've been digging into the Greater Cleveland investment market and thought I'd share what I'm seeing. Cleveland and the surrounding markets continue to offer affordable property prices, good rental demand, and some solid opportunities for investors. Quick Market Snapshot: Purchase prices: Clevela...
Memphis crime data is generally about where, not when. We pull the data daily, and mapped a year of property crime to the hour. 35,737 incidents. Quietest hour: 5am, 588 across the year. Busiest hour: 5pm, 2,041. A 3.5x swing between the best and worst hour of the day. Memphis property crime surp...
The headline is rough: Pending home sales just fell to the second-lowest level ever recorded. The West hit a new record low, while the South is sitting just above its record low. July contract signings fell another 2.3% and are now about 30% below 2019 levels. So. . .how low can will it go? Yet d...
I am working on a blog for multiple counties across the metro. Comparing 5 year old construction & newer vs anything older. There is still a difference between never lived in construction versus something lived in 3 years but that's harder to weed out. Here's Jackson County. 5 Years & Newer... • ...
If you tried to buy in Boise in 2021, you know the feeling: every house had eleven offers over asking before you'd even finished reading the listing. That market is gone, and good riddance. What's replaced it is quieter and, frankly, more interesting to us as investors — the underlying demand nev...
The July numbers lined up in a way worth flagging for anyone underwriting deals right now! Appreciation is slow, and that's the point ICE's latest Home Price Index has prices up 0.21% month over month and 1.71% year over year. The six-month run rate puts us near 3% annualized. If you're used to t...
Three cost pressures hit apartment owners this week. Here is what each one actually does to your building. This was a heavy week, and the three developments are more connected than the headlines suggest. All three land on the same part of your operating statement. Laying them out together because...
I'm just curious what percentage of your leads come from court cases? I primarily focus on divorce, forclosures, and tax deeds. What about you guys?
There has been a lot of movement in the bond market lately, and I think some investors underestimate how quickly that can affect financing. People tend to focus on what the Fed might do next, but longer-term rates can move quite a bit without the Fed changing anything. That can cause pricing on a...
I pull our MLS numbers every week, and July was the first month where the two halves of this market stopped agreeing with each other. Posting the raw figures in case anyone else is watching this metro. Jefferson County, single family, July 2026 vs July 2025: Active listings: 1,777 to 2,305 (+29.7...
Quick market update for anyone underwriting deals right now: the 30-year Treasury yield broke above 5.3% this week, the highest it’s been since 2007 (back when Lehman was still standing). This isn’t the Fed hiking rates; the Fed has actually held steady for five straight meetings. This is the bon...
The new federal housing law will restrict large institutional investors controlling at least 350 single-family homes from purchasing additional properties, with certain exceptions. The goal is to give individual homebuyers a better chance, but could it also create more opportunities for smaller r...
If you've pulled a ZIP code's median household income from any data tool this year and it came back 10 to 20 percent higher than the last time you looked, you weren't imagining it. Nearly every ZIP in the country moved at once. Nobody got a raise. What moved was the ruler. I maintain a dataset th...
The Huntsville real estate market July 2026 gave local sellers several encouraging signs, but it also showed why pricing and positioning still matter. Sales across Huntsville and Madison County increased 19.5% compared with July 2025, while the combined median sale price reached $349,000. Pending...
Good week of data if you're buying or refinancing anything right now. Here's the short version! Inflation Consumer prices rose just 0.1% in July, putting annual inflation at 3.4%. Core inflation, which drops food and gas out of the math, came in at 2.5% for the year. That's the lowest since March...
Capital is coming back. Transaction activity is improving. Lenders are lending again, and investors haven't suddenly forgotten where the real estate department is located. But they have become considerably more selective about what they will finance and what they are willing to pay for. And that'...
Every month Heartland MLS posts the stats for the Kansas City area. Heartland encompasses an hour ish radius of Kansas City. Keep in mind this is for listed properties. Here's what they said... Average Sales Price: $406,907 (+2.5% YoY) Average Days on Market: 36 days (-5.9% YoY) Months of Supply:...

I run a property management company here, and we track listings across platforms. In July, 4,288 listings inside the city limits came through our collection. 941 of them dropped their asking price at least once. That's 21.9% of the market marking itself down in a single month. Here's where. The s...
Every out-of-state investor asks me the same question about Las Vegas: "which neighborhood should I buy in?" When I first started, I thought that was the right question. It isn't. We target a specific tenant profile — families with young kids, household income $60K–$85K, renting single-family 3+ ...
Hey everyone, I’ve been diving deep into the data for the underserved 2–50 unit multifamily layer across Metro Atlanta and North Georgia, and the numbers from this August point to a clear shift. Core Metro Atlanta inventory has climbed to an elevated 11.5 months of supply, officially tipping us i...
I pulled Zillow's Home Value Index (ZHVI) and Observed Rent Index (ZORI) for every metro in their top 100 and computed gross yield = (median rent x 12) / median home value. Same formula for every market, so it's apples-to-apples. 97 of the 100 have both series. Top 10: 1. Jackson, MS - $215,622 v...
July was another strong month for Austin-area home sales, with considerably more transactions and dollar volume than a year ago. Total sales increased 12.5% year over year to 2,950, while monthly dollar volume jumped 15.4% to $1.73 billion. Year-to-date dollar volume is now 7.4% ahead of 2025, an...
