Hello good people!

I'm brainstorming ideas on how I can market myself to potential mentors in the STR game in order to gain experience. Ideally, I'd like to become so much of value that I'd be paid for my help/ services. But I understand where I'm at now, and am willing to work for free until I can provide such value.

A little about me. I only have 1 property under my belt and am currently house hacking my SFH. I have 0 experience managing STR properties, but lots of experience using Airbnb from my travels 😅 I am halfway reading Avery Carl's book on STR.

Here are some ideas I got from Tony & Ashley about providing value to other investors:

(Shoutout to the Real Estate Rookie Podcast!)

1. Manage their properties
2. Provide welcome gifts/ goodie bags for their guests before check in
3. Hauling extra supplies/ misc items to return to stores or other properties

Any other ideas that I can pitch to make myself more marketable?

And are there any other skills I should focus on and develop?

-

Thank you all in advance. This rookie really appreciates it 🙏

 Thank you Tanner! That's a good idea and now I'll have a buy box for searching. Appreciate it!

Hello good people!

My goal for this year is to flip my first property. I've read J Scott's Books on flipping and gone through the Youtube rabbit hole but I feel like I'm missing a piece. I have met some private investors that are interested in helping me with the funding of my flip, but I haven't found any properties yet. From my understanding, I need a Proof of Funds in order to get under contract. However, I'm assuming that my private investors won't agree to a POF unless they see the deal.

Should I have a conversation with my private investors and ask how much they would be willing to lend?

Or should I find a property first and hope that no one will get that property under contract right away?

Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you!!
