(im not trying to sell you any, just see an opportunity for you to grow).

I'm excited to see you grow

My dad was an estate attorney, I saw mistakes like this over and over growing up and still do today.

But right now "junk fees" are popular in the national conversation.

Hi @Gisele Sood, there is a mix of free and paid services that can help you retrieve the data that you seek.To gather data on tenant demographics and property demand, consider these resources:Census Bureau & City Data: Offers insights into local demographics, income levels, and household types.Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com Market Insights: Check these platforms for property demand trends, popular property types, and renter data by area.AirDNA & STR Insights: If considering short-term rentals, these provide data on occupancy rates, guest demographics, and property preferences.CoStar & REIS: Paid services that provide detailed market analytics on rental demand, property types, and demographic preferences.These sources can help you understand tenant needs and property demand in your area.

This will help direct your search to the right areas, property types and price point.If you're purchasing all-cash, skip that step.Depending on your goal and preferred timeline for closing, the majority of your time should be spent searching for and analyzing deals.Searching: Look at public listing sites; connect with an investor friendly agent and choose 1 to work with who can search MLS and off-market inventory; for additional off-market options, consider growing your own database of wholesalers and homeowners Analyzing: Your agent can send comps and you can also search public listing sites for sold homes.

In fact as the fiduciary your responsibility is to grow the account as quickly and effectively as you can.  

Land that is is between two MSA's is always good, as presumably those MSA's will continue to grow and everything else between them. 

We own in CA, SC, and VA, with 5 different properties and growing!
