If you're more of a 'personal referral' person than a 'do research online' person, and this is local to you in Manhattan, KS, hit up one or two of the trades people in the "little apple all stars" BNI group.

This is a common misconception but we're an online platform where the owner chooses their own price and selects their own tenants.

@Jenny Yu do they have an online portal you can log in to?

Is it because it's a 2 bedroom or is it because it's in a better location and looks better in online pictures. 

Unfortunately, while all the online places area great sources of information, you are much less likely to take action, or find someone to shadow, when online in a forum. 

You can also check their reviews online at Google, Facebook, or Yelp.

Have proof on hand (easy enough to find) online of the missed tax payments and any documentation that supports that he specifically didn't pay his taxes.Probably a simply mistake on his part, but now if he wants to develop on it, he either has to land lease it from you or buy it back.I'm not sure how the whole tax deed thing works, so that would be something you have to figure out between the two of you.

Overall, sounds like there is more inventory coming on line in 2025 in some major markets so wondering what some of those leading indicators of a "bottom" might be.

These include website/investor portal, CRM, in-person meeting space or online (Zoom), online scheduler like calendly.The secret is to create a "system" so you can keep the flow of PMLs coming through your pipeline. 

You can also use online resources such as City Data to search demographics in the area.
