The primary challenges would be about the safety of settlement transfer for a physical currency transfer (like gold) and the specificity of timing and valuation of transfer in digital assets. 

Physical or digital?

Technological advancements are reshaping the real estate industry for investors in various ways:Data Analytics: Advanced tools offer insights into market trends and investment opportunities, aiding informed decision-making and risk assessment.Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR): Remote property exploration with virtual tours saves time and resources, attracting potential buyers or tenants and expediting transactions.Blockchain: Secure transactions via smart contracts reduce intermediaries, costs, and fraud risks in property dealings.Online Platforms and Marketplaces: Digital platforms broaden access to properties, investment options, and real-time market data, enhancing efficiency and transparency.Artificial Intelligence (AI): AI algorithms predict market trends, identify investment opportunities, and personalize recommendations based on investor preferences.Internet of Things (IoT): IoT devices provide real-time data on property performance, enabling cost reduction, efficiency improvements, and better tenant satisfaction.Crowdfunding Platforms: Real estate crowdfunding democratizes investment access, allowing smaller investors to participate in projects previously out of reach.In summary, embracing these innovations enhances efficiency, transparency, and accessibility in real estate investment, enabling investors to capitalize on emerging opportunities and stay competitive in the market.Thanks!

Hi Bubba, Transitioning to online-first marketing is crucial in today's digital age.

Protecting one's digital reputation is important. 

Personally I invest in stocks, mutual funds, moneys in high yield savings account, dabbled in digital currency and but primarily real estate.

The upper level would be overflow capacity in the peak season and a 4-week or 12-week rental to digital nomads in the off-season.

If you can go deeper than 7 feet then by all means go for it, but if you can only dig it out to the legal 7 foot ceilings then it's still worth it since like you said in your location someone will rent it for $1300.

I would say that a 1.20x DSCR ratio minimum for BRRRR is a bit high - plenty of options out there that wouldn't require such a hurdle A lot of industry DSCR requirement doesn't make sense actually, typical cap rate right now for single family with average price of $1.3 mil in SJC is about 1.5-2.0% right now, DSCR is whooping low 0.3-40.I don't know how you guys could qualify DSCR rental in CA these days.Now that our friend in Milwaukee is having trouble getting financing of his own, and we speak about Milwaukee here where not too distant ago, it was in double digit cap rate territory.my question to you lender folks how are you adjust to these situation ?

Just spoke to a property owner we met here on BP.Very nice person who's been DIY managing their double-digit doors after being burned by bad PMCs in the past.Wanted weekly in-depth updates, all rents deposited in their bank account - and then they would pay the PMC their fee, and expected the PMC to use their PM software.Pretty much looking for a go'fer person, NOT a PMC.We wished them good luck.
