I just gave a talk to the group of digital nomads I'm traveling with this fall on this topic.  

I finally made the digital plunge into the BP ecosystem.Many thanks to all the contributors to the site, the books, podcasts, webinars, and motivational emails.I am now approaching real estate as if my hair is on fire.

Every time I model out a multifamily in various neighborhoods its either negative cash flow or a low single digit cap rate.

The world moves in digital dollars, credit, and access.

Most of My properties (all in the market I’m expanding into more) have had double digit forced appreciation double digit market appreciation.

This flattening out of the cap rates would occur if the market place for the higher double-digit cap rate properties and the market place for the lower 3-6 cap rate properties in Los Angeles consisted of the same set of buyers.

If they print it then scan it then email you the scan (vs the actual digital original document), pass.

How I managed: collect all rent via Chase bank deposits (not everyone had a bank acct. for digital payments), electronic leases, and would have a list of vendors service the property if there was an issue.

Meaning, I would go full digital as a realtor and work mostly out of my car. 

We use a digital lock box in conjunction called Codebox.3.
