Don't trust the consolidated data on AirDNA!

Some of the strategies I've used in the past are:-comparable sales data nearby-take pictures to show damage or deteriorating conditions of the property-show low rental income or conditions if applicableAny advice would be appreciated.

I'm looking for 25,000+ contacts for commercial properties. This makes Reonomy pretty pricey. Does anyone have any other recommendations for tools? Thanks

But you'd have to really dig into your market data to decide if its truly a competitive advantage. 

With just the data given, I would say buy a duplex, rent out the other side, and if you have extra bedrooms in your unit, rent those too. 

I do respect their data guy, John Bianchi, though. 

Trust data, focus on the upside but plan to take calculated risks. 

Real estate funds also allow you to invest in real estate without worrying about depreciation.Investors may benefit from pass-through depreciation, and the tax benefits will rest on the investor’s shoulders and be driven by their circumstances.

and a last one--Compare a multifamily Real Estate Syndication with other passive investment strategies.We connect Investors with Top Syndication Operators with real-time access to investments.Glad to share any data or information I can on the space.

Appreciation is just the cherry on top.The last few years Toledo somewhat caught up with appreciation but I believe we are capped now.It's a slow moving market and always behind the rest of the country.There is just not enough demand/infrastructure growth like in other markets to support continued appreciation.Historical data shows the Toledo market appreciating at the pace of inflation which is nothing to brag about hehe.IMO, it's a cashflow play and you should consider building a larger portfolio because it will be safer.Owning 1-2 properties can be a "hit and a miss" and really not the providers or PM's fault.There is a high likelihood of turnover so it's important to build a larger portfolio.If you experience "drama" on 1 or 2 properties, the other 4-5 are performing and can subsidize any losses incurred on the few that temporarily aren't performing.Wishing you much success
