When watching his Youtube videos, you definitely get pumped up, and I appreciate the videos. 

I’m already aware of the popularity of Joshua Tree and Lake Tahoe, so I’m interested in hearing about other markets that are strong performers and investor-friendly in terms of regulations.Does anyone have insights on:Specific cities or regions where the permit process is more straightforward?

Talk to locals, have someone take video walkthroughs, get multiple perspectives.

Find Brandon's videos on YouTube for the "four square" method of analyzing homes and practice.

If anyone has recommendations for free resources—whether it’s books, websites, videos, or anything else that could help me sharpen my skills—I’d really appreciate it.

Over the past year or so I've read books, blogs, and watched more YouTube videos than I can remember.

i just watched a few of his YouTube videos and, please check out at least his recent Investor Questions in Office Hours - March 2024video where he answers a number of questions, and at 41 minutes he discusses his syndication structure as strictly 506C, not 506B, which means that he may only take accredited investors and this type of 506C election has a lot of mandated SEC paperwork, too.

To me he is asking for you to do a walk through video of it before he books it.
