With over 10 years of experience in real estate data, property insights, and market trends, I’ve developed a strong understanding of how accurate, timely data helps investors uncover real opportunities and make informed decisions.I’m here to learn, share insights, and build meaningful connections with others who are serious about growing in real estate.

It's one of the hottest markets in the US right now with so much population growth, job growth, and companies moving/developing here (26B Intel headquarters being built here, 68K+ enrollment in Ohio State University, Amazon, FB, Google, Honda, Microsoft, LG, Nationwide, Anduril, etc.).

There are folks on here who are just lurking waiting to try to develop advantageous relationships with newbies.

Quote from @Conner Mathis: Hey everyone,My love for real estate, construction, and development stems from my fascination with how diverse this industry really is.

Hey everyone - Ashley here from southwest Missouri.I came into real estate development through an unconventional path - no formal background, just a growing frustration with watching affordable housing programs trap the people they're supposed to help.

My tip: If you play around with a hypothetical $1 million rental property and change one parameter at a time and then see how it influences long term results over 20, 30 years, you will develop a intuitive feeling for how deals work.

It could be changing the physical property itself, developing, ADU's, or via a change of terms like selling rent-2-buy, point is they BUILD things and that BUILDS profits. - Deal Makers: The facilitators, assorted $ lenders, maybe turn-key providers, they fill the gap between A and Z providing the how-to for your what-to.

We’re currently developing a niche construction service in Los Angeles — stretch ceiling systems.This product is very common in Europe but still extremely rare in the U.S., and because of that, the demand from homeowners, designers, and contractors has been growing faster than we expected.This week we completed another project and learned a few things that might be useful for those working in renovation or home services:🔹 Stretch ceilings allow installation without demolition🔹 Jobs are usually done in 1 day🔹 Perfect for modern interiors, LED lighting, and high-moisture areas🔹 Strong margin business if the workflow is organized properlyWe’re currently building systems for:• faster installs• standardized materials• predictable pricing• and a scalable model for multiple citiesI’d love to hear from:— contractors— business owners— entrepreneurs who scaled niche construction services— or anyone who tested new-home-service models in the U.S. marketWhat challenges did you face when growing into new cities?

It includes everything from 5+ unit multifamily to retail, office, industrial, medical, mixed-use, NNN leases, and development.

Spend time developing both, and you’ll notice that the deals that seemed impossible before suddenly start closing.
