There are a few ways to make your offer more attractive including: Not asking for concessions or credits.

The number of eyeballs they attract is crazy.

COVID created a chaotic spike in both the sale & rental markets, attracting even more new real estate investors.

A beginners mistake is thinking that different classes of properties attract the same kind of tenants.

Or sell your primary, evict cousin & convert rental into your new primary.If you do choose to sell the rental, check to see if loan is assumable -- that is something attractive to advertise in this buyer's market.

I'm very pro-multifamily for investment purposes.If the main attraction to this property is the low interest rate, why not make that work to your advantage and sell the property subto?

Growth is great here.Why I like it: There’s still strong demand from relocators and families visiting, established nice overall neighborhoods, may attract more MTR renters here if you ever want to transition to that.

The question is how long until the purchase is superior to having rented and are you actually going to own the property long enough to benefit from the ownership recognizing the costs associated with buying and selling.Good luckYes, I can see that, especially in CA - renting does indeed look a LOT more attractive vs buying than it does here in the Midwest!

They attract stable tenants, are more liquid if you ever want to sell, and with groups like REI Nation you can lean on their management to keep things relatively hands-off.Small Multifamily (duplex–fourplex) gets you scale and better cash flow.

I agree with Arman: look for "steady demand drivers like universities, hospitals, or outdoor attractions."
