Quote from @Gia Barber: Looking for some advice….We have one unit with no pets but the second unit we are testing the waters and allowing one small dog.

My goal is to create things that are genuinely useful for the community as I learn alongside you.I’m building this journey with my husband, who’s a real estate agent, so we’re combining on-the-ground market knowledge with data and tech.Looking forward to learning from everyone here and connecting with other investors, agents, and builders!

That said, I’ve found a hybrid approach can also work—owning a few core properties while co-hosting or managing a couple more to test different neighborhoods or strategies without tying up as much capital.Curious, how do you handle city compliance in San Antonio?

@Andrew Bosco - If you're doing a "test run" with a partner and hope to scale over time with him/her I think it would make sense on a smaller deal before you tackle bigger deals together.

Thanks for sharing the data—that’s actually really helpful and lines up with what I’ve seen as well.

Note the insurance pays all but the deductible but rebuilds take effort from the asset manager/owner.NAR just pulled down their ADU data on the premise of it being dated (it was getting old but it was the most complete source of ADU valuations).  

I was in this program, simply for the "boots on the ground" @3k/month in Philly to test out two deals there.

@Shilpa GollamudiNevada, Reno is appealing to many CA investors because it has no state income tax, strong job growth (tech, data centers, lithium), and it's close enough to CA for easy visits.

Seeking a push for myself to find appreciating markets, data used to find them and/or people looking for partners who are open to giving an equity partnership to me while I get past the few keys I already have.What can I do to help others while I build my next skills?

If you’ve flipped in that area before, lean on that historical data rather than trying to eyeball from the exterior alone.3.
