I am considering getting into this space (looking at some courses), but worried that its too late, and that deep local market knowledge/understanding of buyers/connection with developers etc is required to make this work, which only incumbent/long term investors will have and would be hard for a new entrant starting from scratch to catch-up...is my hypothesis valid in your opinion ?

With the massive Taiwanese semiconductor plant under construction in Phoenix, bringing billions in investment and thousands of jobs, how significant do you think the ripple effect will be on the local real estate market?

Second, I'd connect with some local hosts in your area also in addition to Airdna.

Its always nice to hear positive things about local people. 

When managing multiple applications, it’s crucial to ensure your process is both fair and compliant with local, state, and federal housing laws, including the Fair Housing Act.A best practice to avoid any perception of bias or confusion is to process and work on one application at a time.

Would love to connect with local investors in the area!

For instance, Berea is a charming college town, but the combination of local taxes and less favorable price-to-rent ratios makes it less appealing for investment compared to other areas in the state.

I am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with any local investor.

Suzanne, This is impressive - love to see deals being made in my local market.

@Jason Khoury I purchased my current residence, a duplex, from a local non-profit about 5 years ago.
