“Vacancies, vacancies, vacancies … and falling rents”

http://www.calculatedriskblog.com/2009/04/vacancies-vacancies-vacancies-and.html

this link provides links to numerous articles about declining rents in both residential and commercial real estate

declining rents is another reason not to purchase investment real estate right now

ignore the one-off reports of “my rent was increased by 10% last year” and pay attention to the trend – rents are declining nationwide and they will do so in San Diego as well

buying investment real estate is all about price vs rents – as rents decline, prices decline – don’t be a knife-catcher!

yes, davelj, I meant REAL prices

monetary debasement (oops, I mean inflation) makes all financial matters very complicated

George Ure (www. urbansurvival.com) was talking about analyzing a company’s financial statement – the company’s statement showed growth but, during the same time period, the govt reported inflation was over 11% so the company had actually SHRUNK in real terms

Ash Housewares – it is Surveyor with the out-of-state properties – I have less than zero interest in owning any real estate that I can’t get to in an hour or less

one of my properties was in IB – about 45 minute drive with no traffic and as much as 2 hour drive in rush hour / weekend traffic – I decided that even IB was too far away to own rentals

looked at a property in Oceanside (which is even further away from me) – just a few drives up to view / inspect the property kept me from following through on my offer – the property was just too far away for me to manage

I’ll caveat all of this with the fact that I was working full time and managing multiple properties myself – if property mgmt were my only job (yuck!!!) I might be willing to have properties that were more than an hour away

FYI – numerous real estate investment books will tell you that being an out-of-state / distant landlord is not the best idea
