Showing → “I like it” → No application means one thing: frictionEvery time a tenant says they want the application and doesn’t submit it, that usually means:application link isn’t obviousthe process feels too long or confusingthey wanted to shop around before paying an app feethey’re borderline qualified and stallingMake sure your follow-up system is tight:Send the app link within 5 minutes of the showingFollow up again 24 hours laterThen again 48 hours later saying:“Just letting you know we’re reviewing apps soon, want to make sure you get first priority.”You’d be shocked how many people apply only because you followed up.Typical timelinesFor my rentals, at the price point you're listing:3–5 days to get first applications10–14 days to lock in a qualified tenant30+ days only when rent is too high or tenant pool is extremely smallYou’re still very early, but if you want to accelerate things, I’d tweak price slightly and tighten the follow-up.

International capital doesn’t go shopping for land the way retail investors browse MLS.

If you weren't living there you could get a dwelling policy that only covers the building (since the contents wouldn't be yours.).I would go with an independent insurance agent, because they can shop a number of insurance companies for your best rate, whereas if you just went with a "State Farm" or "Geico" type company you will just get their one rate.

Hey everyone —Curious to hear how other lenders and shop owners are structuring comp for their loan officers.

Definitely don't overlook physical bulletin boards at the library, grocery store, or coffee shop; they still surprisingly generate leads here. 

I was considering looking for property managers now while I shop around for properties.

One thing I think you probably already know that most of these shops or call centers do is put their loan processors or Lo's on a very low comp plan. 

Quote from @Danielle Solovyeva: Hi Jakub, I'm in a fantastic training with Avery and Luke Carl through the short term shop.

As well as coffee shops like Bottoms Up Coffee are moving in and small microbreweries like brew dog and Land Grant.

Yikes, when I was originally shopping for property management they seemed to be highly regarded and even a little snobby in terms of which properties they would service or not.
