Here's some basic copy & paste info that may help you make better investing decisions:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

,and there was technology out there that would make your decision easier.

PS is revolutionary because of how it has simplified access to all of the various data points investors need to make a decision and because of this its extremely popular.You do not want to be using a popular lead source to increase deals because everyones chasing the same deals.And nothing will change with there data because there business model forces them to have to buy and license the data they get which means waiting for the county/databroker to send it to them which guarantees anyone using PS data will be behind the counties, only getting a fraction of the leads and getting those late leads the same time as everyone else.How do you get access to the leads first.

Very poor decision on my end.

At the end of the day, the list price is your decision.

I know it's a balance of reality, values, and what makes one happy that guide our decisions.

If you are accredited, the best thing to do would be to invest 50k into a syndication and soak up all the knowledge of how it works from an experienced operator before you make the decision whether it's your plan.

Investors have got to make their own decisions on what's best for their money.

Marrying right is huge and I appreciate that you mentioned the importance of that decision.

We travel for work (healthcare) and chronically live out of MTRs, so it will be our first time operating a shorter term, but won’t be an entirely foreign situation to us.
