If you're all over the place with haphazard effort you'll never get your 1st property. 

The takeaway for me is, there are no shortcuts to finding deals.

Seems silly, but I do have the keyboard shortcuts for QB desktop down pretty well, it makes me efficient at data entry, these shortcuts normally don't carry over so well to web apps. 

There are NO shortcuts to accomplishing this process, you either need to hire someone who knows how or learn how which takes time and lots of practice.For ARV, you must use SOLD comps just like an appraiser would use within 1/2 mile and within the last 6 months (although many markets now need to be within last 3 months since price fluctuations have increased so much.

there’s something I learned about many years ago called “habit stacking”It’s where you find something you already do every day (for this example it’s scrolling thru social while I take my morning shi…uhmmm…while I get ready in the morning), and add the new habit you’re trying to reinforce to the end of what you already do.So I just used Apple’s Shortcut app to create a BP Forum app on my homescreen and put it in my “Social” folder on my home screen.My goal is to post or reply to something every morning!

I wouldn't short cut this part. 

@Tim Wang there are always ways to take shortcuts but if you have problems later on you will pay way more than what you saved.

for those who are opening up addresses in Gmaps frequently, I put together a chrome extension so you canhighlight address > right click highlighted text > button there to open address in Gmapshttps://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/maps-shortcut/nacjnoidlajgponcckmkfoebmipbgbfjhope it saves y'all some clicks (its free)

Sharing in case it would be helpful to get the wheels turning and potentially shortcut the learning curve!

Saying 'what if', dreaming, taking risks, and actually looking for shortcuts / leverage is actually a big factor to what's made me successful.
