PM me if you want the contact (they deserve some business for their great support, but if I do not close I have no need for the insurance).Good luck Thanks Dan,  where in CA is that property at very good price for what your describing !!!

My real estate business runs without me.

Here’s how they approached it:1.Scraping Listings: They used web scraping tools like Beautiful Soup and GPT APIs to scan Airbnb for properties in their target areas.2.Image Analysis: They trained an AI model to analyse listing photos, identifying homes with solid potential (good structure, layout, location) that were undervalued due to low-quality photos.

The biggest cost variables are structural surprises, electrical/plumbing overhauls, and environmental hazards (asbestos, lead, etc.).

YES, I do provide a bonus / penalty structure to my contractors.

A good real estate attorney can help you weigh the risks and structure things properly.As for markets, it’s smart to focus on fundamentals rather than personal connections.

As someone who’s spent years building a real estate business from the ground up, I’ve seen both sides of the equation.
