Efficient Renovations: Focused on high-impact upgrades like modernizing the kitchen and bathrooms, improving curb appeal, and installing energy-efficient features, which are highly desirable in this competitive market.Optimizing Layout: Evaluated the property's layout to ensure it met modern buyer preferences, such as creating open-concept spaces.

Technology has been been a huge factor for both. 

Technology is a good partner the more you know on your own.You should make a list of areas you might be interested in first - maybe you lived there or have friends there, you always wanted to go there - and then compare that list to some best areas list, do some of your own research, and then use a major data tool to look.

I will add, with technology, it is quite easy for overseas investors to invest practically anywhere in the US.

I’m eager to learn the process and take actionable steps.I’m particularly interested in acquiring land and identifying creative ways to add value, whether through flipping, owner financing, or long-term holds.My long-term vision includes owning rental properties, possibly starting with a multi-family home where I can live in one unit and rent out the others.I’m also exploring opportunities in modular housing and small community developments to fill a growing demand for affordable yet modern housing solutions.Outside of real estate, I have a background in auto detailing and entrepreneurship, which has taught me the importance of quality, attention to detail, and perseverance.

I was on a Senate Steering committee way back in 85 on how to deal with all the platted antiquated lots in CA. there are millions lots created before the modern rules and these lots exist today but many are not buildable and are traded back and forth from tax sale buyers to retail buyers who dont realize their 5k lot in CA is non buildable.So there was a big conference in FT.

I live in a rural market and this type of issue with technology may not be as big a factor in urban areas.

I'm an IT Consulting guy by day & RE investor by night so getting into the details of all of the technology offerings, how they integrate, which capabilities overlap/don't, where integrated value sits, etc. exposes my nerdiness/love for this kind of stuff.

I wouldn’t invest too much in old technology right before demand creates improvements. 

Located in Crowley, LA, it fit Partner Driven’s strategy of finding homes in need of renovations that could appeal to buyers with modernized features and design.
