Useful tool for out of state landlords

[Billy Maloney]

I wish i remember who it was that recommended this.

I recently became an out of state landlord/investor and I heard about this site Nextdoor.com.  Its sort of a social media website but just for your specific neighborhood.

You can only join a neighborhood that you live in or own.  You have to prove that your the owner.  Once you are signed up its a great tool to see what is going on in your properties neighborhood.  Anything from: Beware!!! someone is poisoning cats in the neighborhood to who bought the land across from the high school? and what are they doing with it?, both real examples btw.

It just gives you a sense of the area and what people are talking about and what they care about. It was created to be used in the area you live but its definitely a useful tool as a landlord. The only downfall is that you can only use one email per neighborhood.
