Hi all, after chairman Powells speech yesterday, it is clear that the fed is committed to fighting inflation by raising interest rates and selling bonds. This will have a negative effect on the housing market due to less demand from buyers. We have already seen price declines in many markets all over the country. 

Now, I know that the real estate pros say to never try to time the market, however, the fundamentals don't look too great right now and there is a good probability that buyers will be able to buy at lower prices if they wait a bit. I would love to hear from all of you on this forum your arguments for why it is a good or bad idea to wait for home prices to fall.

Thank you!

Hi all, just wanted to get some advice on where you all think is the best place to buy a STR in Florida from a cash flow perspective. Preferably no farther north than Orlando.

Also, do the same concepts for buying a STR apply to a LTR? If an investor buys an a property with the goal of making it an STR, and decides he/she wants to make it a LTR, is that inefficient?

Hello all, what are all of your opinions on stock market investing (index funds) vs long term rental property investing? Which one (in your experience) generates a larger return long term? What is riskier? 
thanks for your responses in advance!
