In this episode, your hosts, Jason and Scott, together with Martin Papp discuss:

• Importance of building a trusted legal team
• Leveraging local expertise and connections
• Networking with successful investors and hosts
• Embracing the "bleisure" lifestyle in real estate
• Utilizing data and technology for due diligence

Key Takeaways:

• Before even considering a property purchase, it's crucial to establish relationships with reputable real estate attorneys in the target market as they provide the legal landscape, potential pitfalls, and best practices for foreign investors. 
• Seek out experienced architects, builders, and property managers who can navigate the nuances of the market and provide guidance on high-performing areas, construction costs, and operational considerations.
• Reach out to Airbnb hosts, for example, to learn from their experiences and identify promising properties or development opportunities. 
• The modern real estate investor is no longer content with a traditional buy-and-hold approach, but instead, they seek to blend business and leisure, creating properties that cater to the "bleisure" lifestyle. 
• Cutting-edge data tools like AirDNA provide granular insights into rental market performance, occupancy rates, and other key metrics, and combining this data with on-the-ground research and local expertise can help investors make informed decisions and mitigate risks when venturing into unfamiliar markets.
