I have been reaching out and evaluating a few different sponsors.

I know apps like AirDNA are popular for assessing short-term rental data, but I’d love to hear what other tools or platforms you all use to evaluate markets and find promising investment properties.Questions for You:•What apps or resources do you recommend for analyzing real estate markets and identifying strong investment opportunities?

Experience, licensing, etc are all things lender will take into consideration when evaluating a deal and the more you can show the lender the more comfortable they will be and can often result in more competitive terms, etc

Having a clear idea of what a good deal is for you is going to help you focus. 2) Use these metrics to go evaluate different markets.

Evaluate the inventory: Take inventory of all your furniture, decor, and kitchenware.

But I just log in through safari on my phone. 

So much so, that according to AirDNA data there are 4000+ properties on airbnb / vrbo in this destination, though the property that I am evaluating has been used as a primary residence and has no rental history.

Until you break that log jam the market is going to largely stay frozen.

That said, we have this exact application that we have looked at/evaluated with one of our properties (duplex) that has separately metered electrical but one central air unit. 

A great opportunity to evaluate a deal yourself and then see how a pro like Dave evaluates deals and see if there's any insights you might not have picked up on yet.
