What market are you in? What’s the average time on market in your area?

Lots of markets are slow as rates are high, and Q4 historically is lower for home purchases because people hate to move around the holidays.

It’s a flip, should i hold through the winter and burn cash or do a price cut that may or may not be fruitfull

That depends on your micro market, your financial situation / holding costs, etc…

Hopefully I’m not the first person to tell you that Q4 is a slow selling time.

I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping).

Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?
