I want my offering to be very unique and very investor friendly but also great for me as the operator if I can force appreciation and casflow and do my job.   

But some of my colleagues love to create a thick smoke screen throwing around fancy terms and making vague but enticing promises that will not be relevant in your case.Here is a post on how to find a good tax pro, and notice that we are NOT allowed to offer you our services, not publicly and not even via PM - not until/if the moderators move your post from the tax forum to Classifieds.

There are plenty of college rentals in the town, but I have limited competition because this property is unique, like a mini retreat, and it's very close to the training facility.

They're either buying something really unique that can still cash flow well, or they are second-home buyers looking to have their slice of Colorado heaven and offset their mortgage anyway they can -- STRs on Airbnb and VRBO, while not as good as past years, are still one of the better ways to do that.I do have a few STR clients who are looking to sell because the numbers have slowed or they've tired of the game, but most are just holding tight.

Each tenant living in a building has their own unique rent amount, so even if they do not leave a notation with the rent payment, I know whom paid the rent based on the amount alone.

Through keyword targeting, on-page optimization, and content creation, SEO ensures your website appears when buyers or sellers are actively searching.Common real estate SEO strategies include:Optimizing service pages for terms like "Realtor in [City]"Writing blog content for long-tail queries like “Best neighborhoods in Salt Lake City”Creating landing pages for school districts, zip codes, or home typesPay-Per-Click (PPC) AdvertisingWith PPC, you can appear instantly at the top of search results for high-intent queries such as “buy a home in Sandy, Utah” or “sell my home fast.”

So you need to check all the boxes:-- Buy a unique property, if possible -- this A-frame is an example -- but is not necessary.-- Design it well.

I have had good luck finding cool unique pieces in local stores to the property.

Every investor has unique motivations, whether it's wealth multiplication or cash flow.

I highly recommend getitng an online storage system(Google drive, dropbox, etc) where you can create a 'receipts' folder and create a subfolder for each property you own.I would then create a summary of your income / expenses which you can do through an accounting software of excel.Best of luck!
