When you are a new agent you do not have the luxury of referrals from clients you have worked with over the years.

Post '08' people had the luxury to analyze for "cheap" vs the pre-'08' pricing and feel a sense of security in there current price acquisitions. 

If you want to hone in on the luxury Nigerian theme, you’ll want to incorporate more boho pieces that use natural materials like rattan, etc.I hope this helps you find a starting point for your refresh!

I'm using Minoan to furnish a luxury STR and it's been incredible, and I am actively trying to find a way to better leverage their service. 

For example, managing a luxury building requires a different level of service and communication than managing a multi-family unit.

I myself don't give my opinion about land investing (even though I own land) or large multifamily investing (because I've never owned a multifamily larger than a 12-plex) or commercial real estate or mobile home parks or luxury short-term rentals (even though I own all of those).

For example, in higher-end or luxury markets, where the price point is much higher, full-service staging can be a game-changer.

The way that I have done this in Costa Rica has been to bring in several partners on a high end luxury property who would like to own a part of a property that they can use and enjoy but that they don’t have to manage by themselves.Each of the properties that I own are at a million or higher or will be soon. 

Provided I can establish a solid investment plan tailored to their financial needs/comforts such as debt ratios and income, they would be more than happy to offer me some financial control.Additionally, If I wanted to, for the sake of building my own personal wealth, I admittedly have the luxury of taking a loan from my parents.

My specialty as an example is working with investors looking to build portfolios of Short Term Rental/ luxury vacation properties all across the US.  90% of my clients use the 10% down second home occupancy loan.
