Tommy Adeoye Shaping proptech innovation through your input

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.

Typically, what I'm telling people is this:If you've read the first edition of The Book on Flipping Houses, and if you've done at least one or two deals, you probably won't get enough out of the second edition to make it worth re-reading the whole thing.If you're read the first edition of The Book on Estimating Rehab Costs and you are still relying on price ranges in that book to help you with your pricing, then the second edition is likely going to be worth the cost -- pricing has changed a good bit in the past 6 years and the second edition is updated with pricing gathered from more than 50 successful investors around the country in the past 6 months.Also, the second edition of the Estimating book has sections on how to better complete your inspections for each of the 25 major rehab components, so if you're looking to get better at inspections, that's another reason to purchase the second edition.
