Long term I want to fit a security system to the property, however in the short term I would like to add fake cameras and signs around the property as a deterrent until I have sourced a permanent solution.

Your passion for creating functional yet visually stunning spaces is evident, and I'm thrilled to have someone with your expertise joining the real estate scene.

Your property needs to stand out and it needs to have visual appeal.

Interest Rates: The challenge posed by rising interest rates also serves as a deterrent against speculative purchasing, promising a more stable investment landscape.

While there's no shortage of options out there,as you mentioned, such as PropStream, DealCheck, REI Simpli, and Podio, the aim is to stand out by honing in on what really matters to investors: ROI, value, performance, efficiency, and possibly price.Expanding on what matters as outlined earlier, here are my assumptions regarding what investors might require if I were to launch a product today:User-Friendly Experience: A platform that feels like second nature to real estate investors, with intuitive design and features that make life easier.All-in-One Solutions: A toolbox stacked with everything necessary for successful investing—from finding leads to analyzing deals and managing properties.Seamless Integration: Make workflow smoother by seamlessly connecting with other essential tools and platforms you rely on.Insightful Analytics: Next-level decision-making with advanced analytics and data visualization that help you optimize investment strategies.Now, the challenge lies in the fact that every investor is unique, and the features might be excessive if they don't offer genuine value.

I definitely agree that there are a ton of great resources to read and view written (and visual) material about flipping and real estate investing in general — Bigger Pockets is probably the best example in real estate of just how much information you can obtain for free nowadays and don’t even need to pay the $50 on e-bay.

@Jen Pothilat this website has a good visual of where all of the zip codes are: http://www.zipmap.net/Missouri/Jackson_County/Kans...

Be an agent (listing specifically)Great at analytics, visuals and garnering insights? 

You should be able to get a good enough idea from a visual inspection to put an offer in, or bring someone with that level of experience along with you for showings until you get to that level yourself.  

I would do a visual of the appliances and assume replacement for any that look sketchy.
