Anyone in southern Florida that could offer advice - def not looking for some program etc. would it make sense to try and partner with someone so someone else could help with identifying properties and both kindof would profit monetarily as well as stand at risk? 

Hi all Have any of you used Identity verification platform (like Checkin, Authenticate or Enso Connect) for short term rentals? What is your compliance? Did you have any cancelations due to the process?I have a short ...

I’m trying to streamline my process for analyzing distressed properties and identifying value-add potential.

Quote from @Joe Daniel: Hey Dave, lots of investors build their buyers list by tracking activity from local public records especially recent cash purchases, LLC transfers, and repeat buyers in the county.It helps you identify who’s actually buying right now instead of collecting random emails.If you ever want to talk through ways to source or organize that data efficiently, happy to share what I’ve seen work well for others. 

Before I found this out, I wrote many letters and cold called until I could speak to the different land owners in my identified zone, and after speaking to nearly all of them, non were interested in hearing what I thought was na attractive offer.

I’m especially interested in real estate syndications, but I don’t yet feel confident in my ability to properly vet deals or identify reputable sponsors.My wife and I are preparing to get started with small multifamily properties in the Midwest, although this strategy has risks and drawbacks as well. 

I could use some advice.... what does the process look like once I identify a company I want to take over for managing the property?

Quote from @Michael Baum: Hey @William Kwong, so you didn't say how big the place is but there are some restrictions on STRs in multifamily there.For example - Not more than two separate units in any multifamily residential dwelling, whereone other unit in the same dwelling is occupied by the owner and identified by theowner as his or her principal residence, as that term is defined herein;So it appears, if it is more than a 3 plex, you can only STR 2 of the units in total.

Once you identify the prime MTR location, you can make a move.

Find a way to buy off market, discounted properties(Major Key)Add your own metrics to the list above....But once you identify your metrics start analyzing deals and pull the trigger on something.
