To me the biggest takeaway is that as real estate professionals, we always talk about location, location, location.

Dubai has no taxes .You can make very good money doing Airbnb.I know property managers who can manage the properties for 4% per annum .

Not impressed with other large institutional managers who are very light with boots on the ground and in many ways have the attidude they are assisting you in managing the property, not managing it for you.

I am hoping to learn about managing my own property and how to get tenants. 

It is located in a desirable location, but want to hear your thoughts on how the inconvenience of no parking in the property can impact ARV.

That means learning how to vet a manager.

Firstly, it often generates higher rental income compared to long-term leases, particularly in desirable locations or during peak seasons.

Do you have a property management company you use? 

They do not write policies in Louisiana where all of my properties are located. 

Some focus purely on numbers, while others look at long-term value, location trends, or creative financing strategies.For those of you investing in Chicago (or similar markets), whats your mindset when evaluating off-market opportunities?
