Key insights

  • Purchasing a property needing significant work, like replacing a septic system, can lead to a substantial discount, potentially under $100,000 below asking price, which is advantageous in a market where properties often sell over asking.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Relying solely on 2020 booking numbers to justify an investment property purchase can be misleading, as this period saw an artificial boom due to global circumstances; analysis should include pre-2020 data.
