The problem was..when it came time to list, the appraiser wasn’t on the same page.

Regarding the deals you see listed after 2 years, sometimes investors choose to take advantage of the appreciation they've gotten and move it elsewhere.

It’s a celebration for the fermenting of the grapes in the region.Great notes about development.

In my developments, I went to everyone I could in the area and got the most RELIABLE (not cheapest) person in order to make my numbers work the best. 

Take a look again at your FF and AirBnB listings to see if there is any room to shake up the description to show off that you understand the needs and wants of travelers. 

I know there is a huge shortage of housing and that has driven up price in the past couple years (along with other factors such as the pandemic, population growth, etc) so, I see listings for 2br-1bth for up to 2200 on places like Zillow, Redfin, etc.  

It never hurts to call them back to see if they have any idea what they are doing just for the reason you said - if they are decent, hop on that list.

Perhaps take a look at:  https://www.loopnet.com/ and see which types of commercial lease listings interest you and from there take inventory of which brokerage and listing agents are prominently features in the space that interests you.

If you would take a different route than the ones I’m going to list below please let me know.

Most investors at those meetups will also give you a list of things to look out for and share some mistakes they've made along the way to try and help.
