The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate is now approaching 6.25%, while the 10-year Treasury yield has dipped to 4.02%—a notable decline driven by a flight to safety and weakening economic signals.

After 45 days I lowered the rent price 5% (rents in my market have declined roughly 5% since the beginning of Q3) and have seen little activity since I took that action 20 days ago.

The US dollar's value (a reflection of the strength of the empire) is in dramatic decline. 10% this year - and 97% since the debasement from the gold standard. 

Tell me about a time a deal was initially declined — how did you turn it around?

-The single-family median price declined 2.1% to $327,000.

For example - with interest rates expected to decline, more borrowers are exploring ARM products with lower rate incentives as well as interest only repayment options or extended amortization schedules. 

I would decline any changes (although Theresa gives good advice moving forward), and thank your lucky stars for dodging this bullet. 

Yeah, I've tried some of those tools - SEMrush/SpyFu are great for digital marketing but not really designed for real estate market research specifically.The gap I'm seeing is that most tools focus on one piece:- Rentometer → rental comps only- NeighborhoodScout → crime/demographics only- AirDNA → just Airbnb data- City-Data → outdated forumsSo you end up with like 8 browser tabs open trying to piece everything together 😅What I'm really looking for (and maybe others here too) is something purpose-built for real estate investors that shows:✅ Actual rental demand (not just comps, but vacancy rates, days on market)✅ Section 8 voucher availability by area (huge pain point for me)✅ Local landlord regulations that could kill a deal✅ Neighborhood trajectory (improving vs declining)✅ All in one place, specific to the address I'm analyzingCurious - for those doing multiple deals per month, what's your process?

Looking for advice on a rent collection issue.
My tenant has a history of non-payments, but we recently signed a stipulation agreement. Under this, he owes a large balance to be paid on top of monthly rent.
