I just got off the phone today with an investor-friendly real estate agent in another state (not NYS) who has a whole team behind her and has made it seem as if real estate investing is a much simpler process.

I would explain to them your process of handling requests, response times, property inspections, and so on.

These programs often assert to guide you step-by-step through the process, provide assistance with funding, and connect you with contractors.

Lessons learned are related to the title process I use with sellers and buyers.

I’m in the process of getting my real estate salesperson license to gain access to MLS listings as well.

Just document the current condition before the cleanup process and follow any other local law or procedure that is in your municipality. 

@Phil SheltonYou would need a civil engineer to provide a drawing to get submitted to zoning and get a permit if it passes zoning is most common This also depends on the road - if it’s a state road forget it as it will take a year to get approved and cost a fortune - if it’s a local road process not as cumbersome but don’t expect this to happen quicklyIn some instances you may have to prepare sight distances etc to make sure it’s safe to add a curb cut

Is there an app that can streamline this process by synchronizing updates across all these platforms, thus alleviating the need for constant manual updates?

Also, hard money lenders want a scope of work filled out prior to funding the deal so this is a good little hack to get one as well. 

Let me know if you have any questions on the process of appreciation and even tax advantages, especially since y'all are engineers!
