Here is my simple Top 5:1.Review the market – Understand the trends and conditions in the area.2.Analyze the property and the numbers – Ensure the deal makes financial sense.3.Visit the property – There’s no substitute for seeing it firsthand.4.Meet the team – Whether it’s your property manager, builder, or contractor, relationships matter.5.Complete inspections and appraisals – These protect you from costly surprises.If all these boxes are checked and the numbers work for your goals, then it’s likely a solid deal.

It’s simple, people who spend good money on the home of their dreams don’t want STR’s next door to them.  

They had proffers up there but things you would not be taught - when you have a project site you have to use police officers and not flagman.

In my opinion, making an offer site unseen is not a risk.

Let's keep it simple.

They used to be good and simple. 

If you haven't already joined the social media sites (same name as the book), I highly recommend them. 

Platforms like BiggerPockets, local REI meetups, and Facebook groups can connect you with investors seeking opportunities.Joint Venture Partnerships: Consider partnering with a seasoned developer or investor who can provide the capital while you contribute your vision and operational effort.Hard Money Loans: If you’ve identified a property, some hard money lenders may fund the purchase and development based on the future value (ARV) of the project.Crowdfunding Platforms: Sites like Fundrise, Groundfloor, and RealtyMogul cater to real estate developments and could be a great way to gather capital.Seller Financing: If the land seller is open to it, negotiate terms to finance the purchase directly with them.2.

But, more commonly, they bring in the capital, maybe do a site visit before closing, and ultimately just forward an investor email to the main operator, then forward the response to the investor.  

The Rentastic (and other RE focused systems) do seem way more simple, and user friendly than QBO.
