Google MapsGoogle Maps is a fantastic and free tool for scouting potential properties and understanding neighborhood dynamics.

If you have never been to Philadelphia or lived there, trying to invest there is going to be very hard unless you are planning to go multiple times to understand the block dynamics of the areas you are interested in.

We use Hospitable as our PMS for automated messages and calendar syncing, PriceLabs for dynamic pricing and market analysis, Minut for noise monitoring, Schlage Encode locks, Ring cameras, and the Google suite for shopping spreadsheets and owner monthly invoices.

Hi Everyone,With the current dynamics in the South Florida real estate market, I'm curious to hear your thoughts and strategies regarding condo investments.

If you don't understand the dynamics of these communities, it can sink you.

We handle the permitting process, bookings, all guest correspondence, 24 hrs emergency, syndication to 50+ sites, dynamic pricing, marketing, coordination of cleaning etc

There is a dynamic shift occuring that Ive seen over the last 4 years since I started: More people with higher paying jobs are downsizing to these neighborhoods (again, not warzone, but working class, and you can still purchase a property at 25-35k).

For newbies in general, having that visual aide quite often clears everything up.

Even though we purchased the property at market price, I do see a lot of hidden value in it and after hearing you on podcast I think you might be the one we need to help us visualize the full potential of our property.
