It's going to take a lot of calls or texts to get a customer, but you'll get one eventually.

Military, government workers, families relocating or displaced due to a tragedy, students traveling for internships, and digital nomads are all different customers who need temporary furnished housing. 2. 

Do you guys feel the space way? 

I feel like our rents were pretty behind for a while and they are finally catching up to other coastal metros.

I also became a licensed realtor and now assist investors and retail customers in finding their perfect properties. 

My partners are feeling jittery about jumping into multi-unit properties (think 2-4 units) before a possible market crash.

Some work that comes to my mind is:1) Managing tenants to get rent paid2) Diagnosing a repair issue and getting the right team to make the fix3) Fielding messages from prospective tenants on advertised rentals4) This list goes on...I've found a company that automates rent collection and income/expense tracking for free, but I'd like to replace my property management portal altogether and feel I'm only half way there (certainly a tenant facing chat bot would close the gap).

If you ever need assistance with rental analysis for properties or good areas to look into for rentals, feel free to shoot me a DM, I'd be happy to assist. 

I am from West Michigan as well, feel free to reach out if you would ever like to chat. 

Happy to answer any questions, feel free to connect!
