Having cash to play with is nice, though the rollercoaster has given me a fresh appreciation for real estate and holding.

Hi everyone, my business partner and I have just purchased our first rental property, and are now thinking of the best way to manage the property from a business perspective.

The 10 year perspective is helpful. :) Surprisingly, the HOA has no lease minimums, my real estate lawyer confirmed when I bought there is nothing limiting me from renting it on Airbnb (which was her suggestion lol).

Just to get an understanding of the value of the location from others perspective.

Interestingly, without any paid marketing, our platform has attracted over 250 prelaunch sign-ups within a month, signaling a widespread search for fresh, effective networking solutions.Given this context, where do you primarily forge these valuable connections now?

I’ve been in the industry for a little over 4 years now, and even though I still consider myself new I wanted to start this discussion to share my opinion of why this happens and would love for people to share their perspective on it too.

I think, whether you're ready from a cash perspective or not at this point it would still be helpful to build a relationship with some trusted lenders who have demonstrated experience with helping househackers/investors for them to coach you a bit on what steps to take now while you are saving up!

There's a good amount of downtime baked in too so that you can dive deeper with anyone you're really connecting with, or get some solo work time in to start implementing what you're learning.Side note: They always book huge, gorgeous houses, and there never any no shortage of fresh food & drinks. 

Plus, those days we had a few gurus that actually were well worth the money they charged and did provide usable, and valuable information, insight, and perspective.  

I am a COO of a $15mm construction company(during the day) as well as own/manage 20 houses and 2 strs mixed in that we also own and manage. .... your post was great and it is awesome to see the different perspectives, thanks for doing that!
