Other lapses include forgetting to include utility fees in a new lease which was previously discussed with the owner but the new lease got signed by an existing month to month tenant and was not shared with the owner before the tenant and the PM signed it!

I've used an online designer before, you send her photos, measurements of the room and existing furniture, and your budget and she presents you with design options and the links to buy!

After all if someone is looking for an STR business and has cash, they will save a lot by buying an existing vacation rental.

I actually like Spam though.Health care is both very inexpensive and for higher end issues, non-existent. 

With existing tenants, you DO KNOW THEM!

So when I'm reviewing screening reports for my rentals, I like to find out the story behind an eviction - I've had good tenants with evictions on their records who never bothered to expunge their eviction from the record when they had a prior vindictive landlord (yes, such landlords do exist and give the rest of us a bad name). 

If you’re referring to the “newbies” with $10k to their name that watch a video by Pace and get excited and pay for joining, go out with their last $5k and do a sub to with a “desperate” homeowner without revealing all the possible consequences (because they are unaware of the consequences through lack of experience and lack of knowledge and or choose not to inform the seller) then I agree, it’s probably going to turn out badly for all concerned.If on the other hand you’re referring to a seasoned investor with excellent credit, significant cash reserves, who wants to add a property to their portfolio without going through loan qualifying, and can pay enough to give the seller “walking away” money because of the low existing interest rates and or, and is dealing with a informed seller, then I find nothing wrong or negative about the transaction.  

Having said that, we also have many clients we use our systems and processes for crypto funds, buying existing businesses, funding startups, hedge funds, venture capital, and even non-profits.  

In my opinion, the best agents, appraisers, home inspectors, contractors, lenders will utilize AI as a complement towards their existing businesses to spur greater growth and operational efficiencies.

Create rooms within existing square footage, look into ADU properties, etc.
