I was talking to
 a client this morning and they think that the real estate market is a 
buyers market. I would say this is simply a different market than we 
have ever seen before. I found this article at https://propertyonion.com/education/ohio-housing-market-predictions-for-2023/
"Demand for homes in most of the greater-Cleveland area remains strong, 
partly the result of insufficient inventory. The housing inventory 
equates to merely 1.3 months, well below the 5 or 6-month level 
traditionally associated with
 a healthy real estate market. Simply put, the months’ supply refers to 
the length of time (months) it would take to deplete the existing homes 
for sale in a given market"
1.3
 Months and 6 months are needed. The real estate market will probably 
not crash at all. In fact in Cleveland Ohio it will probably go up at a 
2-3% pace. 
"
The short supply of available homes in the Cleveland area was further 
exacerbated in late 2022 amid escalating interest rates. This should 
come as no surprise, as existing property owners with a mortgage at 3 or
 4% lack the motivation to sell and face rates of 6 or 7% in their next 
home."
This
 is another issue that is creating an inventory shortage. People like 
where they live and their mortgage payment. With inflation and interest 
rates heading north it will continue to be an issue. 
The
 other issue is new medium priced homes being built. In 2008-2016 
basically no new medium priced homes were built. This is also another 
reason for the shortage. 
"
Many local real estate professionals suggest that investors should look at Cleveland in 2023, as the market
 should increasingly favor buyers more than sellers. Within the city 
limits, renters occupy more than half of the housing units; therefore, 
strong demand exists for rental units — particularly in the 
single-family rental home market."
This
 is the silver lining so to speak, rents will be a stronger market. That
 is where I come in. I find great real estate for my investors and do 
all the detailed work until it's at the property manager (Avalon Group 
Realty). My clients get updates and progress on their property through 
the process. 
Buying real estate for investment today is very smart! Don't wait
