While there's no shortage of options out there,as you mentioned, such as PropStream, DealCheck, REI Simpli, and Podio, the aim is to stand out by honing in on what really matters to investors: ROI, value, performance, efficiency, and possibly price.Expanding on what matters as outlined earlier, here are my assumptions regarding what investors might require if I were to launch a product today:User-Friendly Experience: A platform that feels like second nature to real estate investors, with intuitive design and features that make life easier.All-in-One Solutions: A toolbox stacked with everything necessary for successful investing—from finding leads to analyzing deals and managing properties.Seamless Integration: Make workflow smoother by seamlessly connecting with other essential tools and platforms you rely on.Insightful Analytics: Next-level decision-making with advanced analytics and data visualization that help you optimize investment strategies.Now, the challenge lies in the fact that every investor is unique, and the features might be excessive if they don't offer genuine value.

I guess on the plus side is that the bad apple is only there temporarily lol.. rather than a long term tenant who is of the same nature.

This can be forced appreciation (adding a bathroom or bedroom), or it can be natural market appreciation if I think the asset will go up in value. 

Naturally there will be waiting time in between . 

We told her our theme which was lake and nature inspired due to our proximity to a big lake here and she did the rest.

So either buy as an LLC and make sure you dot your i's and cross your t's or buy as an individual and make sure you have adequate insurance coverage.
