The advanced analytics and insights AI can provide are invaluable, offering us data-driven guidance and uncovering trends that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Paid platforms often offer additional features like market analytics, off-market property leads, and filters for investor-specific criteria, giving them a leg up over free options.Exactly, most platforms have to offset cost somewhere because of how expensive it is to keep the data up to date.

We are both analytical and enjoy working with numbers.  

My professional background is data science / analytics, which means analyzing cash flows will probably come more naturally than building relationships, which apparently, is how one finds deals worth making.Are there meetups in these areas I should attend (digitally at first, presumably)? 

Use tools like:Airbnb Analytics: Monitor impressions, clicks, and overall CTR.IntelliHost: Analyze your listing for category placement and CTR improvements.RankBreeze: Track your listing's performance and ranking changes.You can also A/B test your photos by rotating lead images or running Meta Ads (Facebook/Instagram) or Google Ads to measure which photo drives the most engagement.The Airbnb algorithm is continuously evolving and every host should pay attention as new features are rolled out. 

Unless I’m overlooking something, I haven’t been able to find mentors who specialize in helping rookie investors navigate the small multifamily space for properties no larger than four units.If you have any recommendations for helpful programs, coaches, or resources you’ve had success with or heard good things about, I’d greatly appreciate it.Thank you so much in advance, and happy New Year to everyone! 

Google Data Analytics gig??

I gave up on their more "advanced" analytics a while ago unfortunately. 

Quote from @Bradley Buxton: @Tove FoxI can share data and analytics with you in the northern Nevada market.

There is so much that goes in a business, rental rates, rental tax, inventory,  job costing, payroll, business analytic reports etc, QiuickBooks does handle what I have mentioned here.
