Engineer by day - REI newbie by night (SF Bay Area)

[Zack C.]

Hi, I'm Zack. My day job is software engineering where I build iPhone, iPad apps and web apps.

I've always been interested in REI. I own one residential rental and am interested in acquiring more. I am fortunate to have a brother and father who are contractors.

Beyond that I am very interested to learn more about the software landscape in this space. With a couple of successful startups under my belt I'm looking for the next idea. Any help from the community on ideas for what is needed and wanted software-wise in the REI space would be much appreciated!
