Hey Elijah, Utilizing MLS access for comps is the most reliable method, but if it's not available, you can still utilize the parameters Jonathan mentioned on other platforms like Zillow, Propstream, and Batchleads.

Where/what platform do my fellow investors like to acquire alternate assets?

Its all mobile through phone, you'd need to be on the host account to view anything, or in the car with them to learn anything.

@Natalia Davis I believe Zelle and Venmo and such platforms now have to keep track of payments beyond $600.

Avail, Apartments.com, Buildium, RentRedi, and several other platforms allow you to make leases that can be signed online electronically and also will then collect rent through their portal. 

You can find reliable lease agreement templates through legal platforms like Rocket Lawyer or LawDepot.

Let me explain with example:- Assume I purchase land worth 50K in August 2024, and then hire contractor/architect and spend over 100+ hours discussing the building plans, etc to either construct a SFR home or a Manufactured/Mobile home.- I will also supervise the construction and other related activities (but will NOT build the house myself) .- Let's assume the total cost of construction is 200K (or 150K if it's a manufactured/mobile home).My Question would thus be- Can the STR tax loophole strategy allow me to offset 60% of the 200K amount that I paid towards construction of the home, (or 60% of 150K if it's a Manufactured home)Any success stories with this kind of approach?  

Crexi Pro has added features to their platform and the data is getting better, but it's no Costar yet.

@Zehua Zhou,You can use a Fidelity non-prototype account to manage the rentals, but it will have some of the features available with the bank's checking accounts, such as having a debit card, mobile deposit, and bill pay.

Platforms like Reonomy or ProspectNow can help you find potential borrowers and properties efficiently.
