So many cheap houses to snap up, yet so few buyers to take your current house off your hands— at least at the price you want to sell for.

There are three culprits actually: homeowners renting out to help with mortgage payments, brand-new condos that can't find buyers, and newly bought foreclosed homes that now need tenants. [HuffPo]
