Fortunately, our software provider continues to improve their product and allow owners to select alerts they want and don't want.Next, we've asked our software provider to add a feature that would allow our owner clients to select from: Immediate Alerts, Daily Alert Summary, Weekly Summary, Monthly Summary.Of course, we call owners when there's a critical issue.

You want to sell a product that doesn't exist.Set up your business first, then start marketing and finding clients.

If your plan is to flip we help create a product that will sell quickly. 

This doesn't mean they are great deals, generally, in the syndication space as it is known on BP, real estate is the product, but marketing is the business.

I feel like a lot of these "cash" transactions are a product of homeowners sitting on record equity.

While doing that, try out their customer service and see who is friendly and knowledgeable about their product, and who answers the phone.  

There's a variety of ways to get a deal in front of you (I'm mostly a flipper), but basically if it looks promising, I run custom comps queries and check the current & past $/sf of renovated/distressed product in that city or zipcode.Here's a chart on 90066 I generated from my tool under Market Stats > Sales Data > Specific Zip Code:- My above chart (more available) shows the Avg Renovated $/sf (High) over time in this Zip Code, something completely different than charts/providers based on Averages/Medians only, like every other platform (RedFin Below, https://www.redfin.com/news/data-center/):- Can't select smaller locations such as City or Zipcode for their $/sf data, so it's useless helping me underwrite/verify a deal.- Can set Zip Code for Median Sale Price data, but again it's the median/avg so it's useless helping me underwrite/verify a deal.Then if that looks decent, I'll run Sales Comps, and get a quick summary of some key metrics based on those comps.

This is not to say you can expect an Agent to catch everything and we are by no means inspectors or contractors, but anyone helping you purchase a rental property should have a basic understanding of rental standards to put out a good product that will attract a good tenant. - Lastly, if you are looking at real estate as a long term buy and hold strategy, you have to look beyond just cash flow.

If you're offering the same product as everyone else then you're left competing on price.
