Build-to-Rent (BTR): A Steady Income StreamWith homeownership becoming less attainable for many, build-to-rent properties are in high demand.

These are what we call "A-class" markets—areas with strong fundamentals, high demand, and typically excellent long-term appreciation.

@Patrick Pan Why did you have to concede to that demand?

My goal is to build a data-driven tool that provides actionable insights into which neighborhoods and property types are in the highest demand, based on metrics like:Time on market: How quickly rentals are being leased.Property characteristics: Bedrooms, bathrooms, size, and amenities.Pricing trends: Rental rates relative to market demand and property features.Visual quality: Leveraging property photos to analyze the style and condition of rentals that perform well.The tool will allow users to:Pinpoint areas with the fastest rental turnovers.Understand what types of properties (size, price range, features) rent the quickest.Gain deeper insights into property presentation and amenities that correlate with high demand.Thank you in advance for your feedback.

How could I determine how much demand there is?

.- Tenant submitted a work order for low water pressure in 2 bathrooms- Tenant submitted a work order because the garage door doesn't close all the way and left a 2-3 inch gap at the bottom- Owner initially refused to address either work order- Owner demanding the tenants place furniture pads on each piece of furniture- Owner calling multiple times to speak through the work orders, asking when they've been scheduled, calling a couple days later requesting the invoices- Owner calling because they want to access their storage in the basement so they can remove several pieces of furniture being stored- Owner now emailing requesting multiple property inspections throughout the lease cycle- Owner questioning my experience and relative PM knowledge because I'm not following up with her in a timely manner (the following day after the work order)Keep in mind, this is 2 weeks after the tenants had moved in and the tenants are very happy in the home.This is something we see on a regular basis.

It really depends on market demand and location.

January is historically the lowest demand/income month so when a cancellation happens it hurts more.

And my new MTR tenant demanded the beds get maid and there was no hangers in the closest.. my last tenants must have stolen them.. then they wanted stuff moved from the garage which I told them thats enough I will give you your deposit back and you can go find another fully furnished home in Vegas I am not doing anything else.. they backed down but I know they are going to be whinny this after the last 6 or 7 tenants never heard a peep.. properties needed just light cleaning at turnover  etc.. so some good with some bad it happens.

Very high demand for real estate throughout the city.
