Because our systems are so dialed in and we've optimized them over 10 years, the VA is not overwhelmed.

Quote from @Kate Stoermer: I just did an optimization analysis of a 3 bedroom in Pigeon Forge area in a resort (shared amenities) for a client. 

Curious if to has anyone has heard of anyone in real estate optimizing their websites to funnel traffic from these chat bots?

@Lane McDonaldHey Lane, what you’re describing is a smart way to optimize cash flow, and it’s something a lot of Midwest investors do with their primary residences.

At the end of the day, your research might ultimately reveal that neither is an optimal solution and there is another scenario that is better for you. 

Also, as we optimized our campaigns, to lower overall acquisition costs, we layered in aggressive SEO alongside our ads.

From there I was able to get into my first SFR, which my wife told me that I could no longer house hack.Along the way I was able to save much more money, and purchase investment properties throughout San Diego, both on my own, and in partnerships/syndications.Without knowing anything about your situation, I would say that buying a condo/townhome to start is going to be the optimal choice for a few reason:1.) riding the equity wave up will help when you make the move to multifamily. 2.)

More and more, I make less than optimal financial decisions in exchange for ones that are decent financial decisions, but great happiness decisions.  

Once your local team is solid, you can focus on marketing and optimizing revenue, instead of juggling logistics.
