Of course having San Diego as my market has promoted my view that unit count means $hit.  

These GenZ are going to destroy/modify everything.Our asset as baby boomers (or a gen after that) is mostly single family, while these-kid value proposition is offering crypto which is intrinsically meaningless but started to get accepted in mainstream way of doing business ,*and* since they don't have anything tangible to sell (they could only sell real estate in metaverse)...i would expect they would replace these model as well.i kind of agree this very important topic is mostly relevant to generation.while every top realtor here in BP would reject changes, these kids are going to change everything that we know, it's for bad or worse i dont know lol

Grace period goes by and husband hasn't been working much lately (he was just telling me how he got promoted to 1st shift two days before).

It's big business collecting "guru" fees to promote wholesaling. 100% of the wholesaler "gurus" make money promoting "easy", no money needed wholesaling.The wholesalers who do 10 deals a month will tell you they have a team, that means salaries, taxes, office space, training and they spend $50,000 to $100,000 a month in advertising.

And not all real estate is bought as is, with the tangible value simply associated and located as is.

If you already have two tenants, that means your rental unit has been approved..your tenants are screened (since they have to be screen through the housing authority) and you get to promote your rental place for free?

I do agree that the sales copy that my partners on the education side put together seems like the typical push/promotion, which doesn't resonate very well with me..

I'd never trust the figures of a promoter and do my own calculations.

I have been through numerous CRM reviews but many seem to be affiliate/promotions in disguise or at least lack objective comparative context. 

There are obviously a lot more factors that go into it - real estate is always going to be a mix of the tangible property/market itself with a mix with the investor/operator including experience, risk appetite, financial situation etc.I would say however if you are just getting started in real estate - LTRs are probably (in a vacuum) the better bet as STRs are certainly more sophisticated and challenging from an investor perspective
