I am happy to hop on a call to share more of my local expertise and if you're still looking for professional property management, I can talk to you more about that.

Otherwise, selling and using the proceeds to scale your portfolio locally could accelerate your long-term goals.

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

It’s likely to at least pay for itself or help the property sell faster.Talk to a few local agents to confirm how much buyers in the area value a garage.

I found this property through my network of local real estate professionals and direct outreach.

I'd make connections with realtors, join local meet ups and expand your horizon.

We found that two key factors significantly helped us succeed with our short-term rental (STR): using NightlyPricer instead of AirDNA and opting for Safely Insurance.NightlyPricer: Rather than relying on AirDNA, we chose Nightly Pricer, which provides more dynamic, real-time adjustments based on demand, local events, and market trends.

You should see if there are any local real estate meetups going on while you're in town.

I'm sure some local banks will do higher especially with a strong relationship but don't think I will fall into that category.

Personally have not seen anything I believe is legit (but I only invest locally).
