Yousef Hossam Digital presence in 2025

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set follow-up rules.Profiles across platforms feel inconsistent- Use the same brand identity everywhere.Information is outdated or scattered- Centralize your digital profiles and update them regularly.People show interest but don’t take the next step- Add clear CTAs, booking links, or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.

A short-term loan will have a much higher rate than a 30-year product, I don't think you'll find anything under double digits.
Chris Oro Ok, give me the lay of the land

From what you described, this sounds like a deferred-maintenance, age-of-systems deal more than a horror show—good news in this game.Since the house was cared for meticulously until she went into long-term care, you’re likely dealing with normal wear & tear, not hidden disasters.Here’s what I’d be thinking and budgeting for on a property like this:🔹 Very Likely Costs• Roof (17 yrs old): probably nearing end of life — budget replacement in the next 1–3 years if it doesn’t fail sooner• Exterior paint/siding: repaint or re-clad if wood — a few thousand to mid-range depending on materials• Old appliances: replace with modern, efficient units — expect $3k–$6k for kitchen appliances if you’re replacing them all• HVAC: these tend to give trouble after ~15–20 years — get it inspected and budget for replacement if needed• Electrical panel/updates: older homes often need some rewiring, additional outlets, GFCI upgrades, etc.🔹 What to Watch For• Plumbing: galvanized or old copper lines can leak or clog after years of inactivity• Water intrusion / grading: check for signs around foundation – old homes can have unseen moisture issues• Windows/doors: drafty and inefficient — replacement costs add up fast• Insulation: likely minimal if original — impacts utility costsSince it has literally sat empty 3 years, the unknown risk isn’t necessarily dramatic defects — it’s what age has done to systems that don’t get daily use.
