Looking to understand more about the nuts/bolts of what these folks are pitching.

Mapping and GIS are great too, but we'll stick to the nuts and bolts here.My question is, with regard to providing high quality, investment-savvy title research, do you also make a habit of jumping down to City Hall or another series of municipal buildings to check for zoning, permitting, and utility issues in addition to your courthouse work?

Additionally, attending local real estate investor associations can be fruitful, as wholesalers often attend these events to connect with potential buyers.Another method is to keep an eye out for bandit signs in your local area that advertise messages like "we buy houses" or "cash for homes."

Regardless of where you are located and invest, do reach out, I am sure a fruitful relationship and conversations will come out of this.Federico

We go whole lot deeper than just the nuts and bolts of a STR business. 

@Ryan DaultonReal estate investment is a fruitful journey in Abilene, TX.

I built a nice custom a few years ago before lumber went nuts and other componants in Charleston sc historic district 2200sq ft  no garage  cost 1mil  to build plus soft costs plus 500k for the lots so in it 1.6  sold 2.2  so i get the nice spreads.right now in Oregon our semi custom product homes are costing about 150 a foot.. to 180 a foot.. to buildand in florida were we are building dingers those are running 100 to 120 a foot and used to be 80 2 years ago.and you know how cheap they build in Texas and OKC.. starter houses.  

Im experienced and still get kicked in the nuts at times.

Lastly, being a good landlord will always bear fruit so it's best to be on top of every issue that arises.

I also plan to convert 4 of my nicer LTR's to MTR's and start to enjoy the fruits of my labor.
