Let me know if you’d like specific product suggestions—I’d be happy to help! 

However, there is no specific holding period contained in the tax code or regulations and there is no "safe harbor." 

Paid platforms often offer additional features like market analytics, off-market property leads, and filters for investor-specific criteria, giving them a leg up over free options.Exactly, most platforms have to offset cost somewhere because of how expensive it is to keep the data up to date.
