Emails: Matthew from Louisville, KY: “Just caught your show by accident and dude I’m hooked. You gotta tell me how I can get some training and do this in Kentucky.” Tuesdays at 2 FlipStarter Course Coming in September Ashley from Denver, CO: “What would be the signs that the real estate market is beginning to cool off?” Watch Days on Market avg. (less than 30 is sellers’ market) OR Watch absorption rate (above 20% is sellers’ market) OR How many months of supply? (less than 3 months is sellers’ market). You can ask a realtor in your area any one of these questions and you’ll get a pretty good idea. The key is to ask the same realtor the same question 3 months in a row so you can track a trend.
