This is the answer for step 1. Figure out if there’s a market and figure out what that product is worth. You doing it manually is like a prototype but it’s actually providing value to your customers more than just hypotheticals without you

Pension funds want to mitigate risk and rental cash flow is a reliable and proven way to do it. When the economy pulls back, these funds will look for solid cash flow options. SFR, like a REIT, is a good choice. When money flows in, this wi

This entire comment lacks evidence or data to support it but I used to work in SFR and still keep tabs with several companies on a personal basis. Redfin and Zillow are not the problems in the SFR industry. These are tech companies that wer

Yeah… middle management is oh-so-powerful! They’re definitely not worried about their own roles because they control everything! Seriously, what the hell is this mindset? What’s the deal with HN and framing middle management as some us-vs-t

Your assumption of the average consumer’s technical chops and desires isn’t realistic. Pirating anything is not as convenient as paying $7/mo. The majority of outcomes here are either they pay the fee and get ads, pay the higher fee an

Investment groups aren’t in it for the resell. They’re incentivized to hold the asset as they’re leveraging against it to buy more homes. Selling assets is pretty uncommon in SFR for this very reason. The game is more about cash flow to ser

Fascinating. I haven’t played or thought about poker in 15 years. Can you elaborate more on the current strategy of poker? A real example would be helpful.

Fair question and yes. Received from a reliable individual and also personally tested. Even still, I’ll admit that even after testing I Googled symptoms of meth use a few times during the early stages of the trip.

Your body feels exhausted but your mind is quite awake. So you’re exhausted and energetic at the same time. Your joints can kind of feel tense if you’re not moving. Walking is enough but then you can also feel overheated pretty easily. Hour

Same experiences. Dropped drinking, started exercising. The LSD dose was much higher and the after effects listed lasted for weeks. However, the mushrooms dosage was lower and while the after effects were similar, it didn’t last as long. Tr

Depends on who is already financed. Likely this will be a lagging indicator and we’ll see further increases in institutional investment. Government at all levels will avoid being involved because citizens have grown used to the liquidity of

The article directly addresses this: “The last time U.S. housing saw such rampant price growth was in 2005, and the market corrected itself, infamously, in 2008. But the underlying reality today is different. Back then, a geyser of subprime

If you’re asking how does it stop, as someone else mentioned: when the government decides to stop participating in the market. If you’re asking what happens when this falls apart, my guess is in hyper-consolidation of wealth. That can mean
