What I love about Baselane is that it was built BY real estate investors FOR real estate investors so it's really dialed in to what you're going to need in order to prepare your taxes, keep your books up to date and the more operational aspects of being an REI like tenant vetting and processing rent payments.

There was quite a bit of unused land and the zoning gave me some flexibility if I wanted to expand various aspects of the property.Also the self storage units were all below market rent and the seller was willing to finance at a decent rate with a 5 year balloon.

Besides the price point, there would certainly be a time savings aspect too (and we all know time is money).  

What aspects of BRRR do you want to discuss?

With software like propstream I can even look at seller mortgage details and MLS private remark.Getting license you only know the legality aspect of being an agent but doesn't necessarily means you would be a smarter one to get to know the market.The only thing that I can not do with propstream is I can not download all disclosures when I try to purchase.
