Don't spend time focusing on buying your first property, spend time setting yourself up financially so you can succeed in the future. 

When considering other locations/markets, check demographic trends - things like population changes, household income, job growth, etc.

There are several other Skip Tracing companies with flexible spending options, no high-cost monthly commitments.

Why spend money covering it.

Spend some time visiting podcasts, articles, websites they've been on.

Hi @Gisele Sood, there is a mix of free and paid services that can help you retrieve the data that you seek.To gather data on tenant demographics and property demand, consider these resources:Census Bureau & City Data: Offers insights into local demographics, income levels, and household types.Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com Market Insights: Check these platforms for property demand trends, popular property types, and renter data by area.AirDNA & STR Insights: If considering short-term rentals, these provide data on occupancy rates, guest demographics, and property preferences.CoStar & REIS: Paid services that provide detailed market analytics on rental demand, property types, and demographic preferences.These sources can help you understand tenant needs and property demand in your area.

One was making an extra $600/month while covering all of his household expenses with just 3 PadMates. 

Since I don't have that requirement, I attract many potential tenants eager to physically see a property before investing 25 minutes online and spending $25-$50 only to be disappointed by a no-show agent, which can feel like being scammed.I keep the showing process short and straightforward, lowering the barrier for more applicants in my pipeline that I can potentially approve!

You should only consider switching when your current software has a significant flaw or lacks features that force you to spend excessive time on workarounds.

Should I attend now or spend a few more months educating myself before going?
