In strict terms of utility as a currency, Bitcoin is actually outdated now and there are more efficient platforms for transactions like Litecoin, Solana, Tether, USDC, ETH, XRP, Tron, BNB, etc. but it's telling that none of these are anywhere near as valuable as BTC despite being faster and better for completing transactions.

A strong digital presence is becoming one of the most underrated advantages in real estate.Most wholesalers, agents, and small teams lose opportunities not because they’re inexperienced, but because their online presence doesn’t support their workflow.Here are common gaps and the practical fixes:Hard for sellers/buyers to find info about you- Keep a clean landing page with your focus, markets, and contact path.Slow response to messages or inquiries- Automate first replies and set follow-up rules.Profiles across platforms feel inconsistent- Use the same brand identity everywhere.Information is outdated or scattered- Centralize your digital profiles and update them regularly.People show interest but don’t take the next step- Add clear CTAs, booking links, or communication channels.A strong digital presence builds trust before you ever get on the phone.And in a crowded market, trust is the advantage that compounds.

Outdated zoning laws limit the creativity (and cash-flow) for investors like the OP. 

Congress.gov https://www.congress.gov/bill/112th-congress/house-bill/4Is this information outdated,  and have there been any changes to require the issuance of the 1099's for people in my situation? 

Hi KarlaI recently joined this group, I apologize for an outdated reply. 

This strategy works better in higher priced markets as the gap between the outdated and the updated houses will be greater.
