Quote from @Elealeh Fulmaran: Shahab, start with these three that turn theory into action fast: 1) The Book on Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner for clear numbers, deal anatomy, and beginner-friendly frameworks; 2) Real Estate by the Numbers by J Scott and Dave Meyer to level up underwriting, sensitivity checks, and real-world decision rules; 3) The One Thing by Gary Keller to lock your focus so you actually execute your first deal instead of dabbling.

We're definitely seeing a mix, but bridge loans have been popular for time-sensitive acquisitions.

But when it comes to tenant relationships, empathy, and problem-solving, that’s where the human element still matters most.The agents we built with Pathwaize handle the repetitive and time-sensitive parts, like answering inquiries instantly, confirming appointments, or sending reminders.

It handles passwords and other types of sensitive information such as credit cards and Social Security numbers.

The key is letting the system handle the 80% that’s repetitive while making sure the 20% that’s sensitive, urgent, or personal goes straight to a human.What I’ve found is that AI works best when it’s not replacing people but triaging the noise.

The rate and points will also be highly sensitive to the LTV, credit score, DSC ratio, loan purpose, loan size, and property type. 

How do you address clutter in shared spaces—especially when one renter is recovering from surgery and sensitivity is needed?

Most landlords don’t realize the flexibility they can build in—if they approach it intentionally.So yes, MTR in NYC carries teeth—but it also carries leverage if you know how to play the game. 

We also find that our underwriting becomes less sensitive to the cost of capital because our ROI is so high.

They love themselves some uninsured, front teeth missing, handyman, who is not reliable, but his hands don't shake all that much when he does show up.2.
