Interesting article discussing the affect "proptech" has been having on the real estate industry over the last few decades:https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbestechcouncil/2019/07/29/the-new-frontier-that-could-outrun-ai-and-blockchain-real-estate-tech/#6402602522bbI'm interested to see what new technologies will be introduced in the coming years.

(and the sub section on REAL ESTATE MARKETING TOOLS & TECHNOLOGY TAXES & ACCOUNTING LEGAL TEAM)One way or another you will pay your "real estate tuition" - either in time, effort or money.

I don't anticipate a crash from technology.

However, not every one is technology or computer savvy.

For example - is it getting more qualified leads, working less hours, making more money, finding life/work balance, figuring out technology to work to your advantage, etc.?

I'm currently working as a technology business analyst/product manager for a global financial institution with 5 years of experience.Some options and pathways that I'm looking into at the moment:1) Working in real estate brokerage/consulting (specifically within the "hotel" groups) - far from resort development but would give the foundational real estate skills2) Going back to school and getting a masters degree in real estate development - expensive, both in terms of time and money, but would set me straight and could focus on working for a resort developer right after3) Thinking of ways I can start right now entrepreneurially (redeveloping small projects and moving up) - risk, lack of funds, knowledge, but I'd be my own boss right off the bat4) Reaching out to resort developers with similar visions that might have potential opportunities - how many will pick up their phones?

With technology today and quality property management you are able to purchase investement properties that match your strategy to achieve your goals anywhere in the world.

Pro: Its cool up to date technology that will provide energy for you. 

I'm a program/portfolio manager in my day job, with oversight to some of the largest and most impactful project portfolios in my group, so I know the criticality of plugging the right people into the right spots.By day, I manage portfolios of technology projects for one of the largest tech companies on the planet.

@Steve RozenbergLuckily with technology and just overall accessibility everywhere, the time to invest out of state has never been better.
