@Grant Shipman Great stuff, I'm a big fan of co-living/rent by room strategy, and I do it here locally in Denver metro, and it is the best strategy in today's market for any house hacker to live for free or make money while living there, but they have to sacrifice personal space.

Let me know if you'd like to set up a meeting since we are local.

Or his investment/local area. 

We have a local competitor that brags they don't charge a maintenance markup, yet we know:1) They charge owners $60/hour for their handyman2) How much do you think they're paying their handyman? 

As a Florida Real Estate Attorney and Investor, I have seen investors do their best networking with local groups.

That needs to come from a local attorney. 

It comes with guides on how to ride the tubes, a crash course in local customs, places of interest, places to avoid, and holly cow it looks just like what they had in there heads of what a London "flat" would look like, so charming and so "Brit"..... 

I am considering getting into this space (looking at some courses), but worried that its too late, and that deep local market knowledge/understanding of buyers/connection with developers etc is required to make this work, which only incumbent/long term investors will have and would be hard for a new entrant starting from scratch to catch-up...is my hypothesis valid in your opinion ?

Nashville, Dallas, etc etc)Yeah, I know states like Florida and Arizona have prohibited local municipalities from restricting non-owner occupied STRs.

Their contribution depends on factors like local demand for ADUs, their design and size, and how they’re used (e.g., rental income potential).
