I'd pick a market close by, or that you have a strong personal connection to, or that you visit often.For example, these investors bought properties that "weren't very expensive," or at least didn't look that way:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/12/topics/1215726-break...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/963/topics/1195280-expe...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1137397-balti...

I’d like to possibly connect.

Something to dive deeper with a financial/loan professional.

I can go way deeper into finding good MTR markets, pursing tenants other than travel nurses, property types, scaling operations through systems (my specialty), renovations, etc but it's much harder to do in a thread.

Hiring a good property manager may cost more upfront, but it’s often the better long-term choice, especially if you want to avoid burnout or costly mistakes.Happy to dive deeper into any of these points if it helps!

I’d love to connect with real estate investors and learn more about your needs and experiences with financing.

., but my recommendations.1) Get deeper before you get wider.

Digging deeper it is a legit program, that actually provides other tools and support similar to Rent to Retirement.

Then sort down to 3 or 4 areas you want to try to make connections in. 

My goal is to build a data-driven tool that provides actionable insights into which neighborhoods and property types are in the highest demand, based on metrics like:Time on market: How quickly rentals are being leased.Property characteristics: Bedrooms, bathrooms, size, and amenities.Pricing trends: Rental rates relative to market demand and property features.Visual quality: Leveraging property photos to analyze the style and condition of rentals that perform well.The tool will allow users to:Pinpoint areas with the fastest rental turnovers.Understand what types of properties (size, price range, features) rent the quickest.Gain deeper insights into property presentation and amenities that correlate with high demand.Thank you in advance for your feedback.
