I've got some news—and I'm honestly so pumped to share it. The past year, I've poured everything into two things at once: Freedom Investor Academy and strIQ. Late nights, lots of learning, and meeting some of the best people I know. And now? strIQ is taking off in ways I always hoped and prayed for: - ~1,000 customers on the platform - Passed $100K ARR - $1M Seed round closing this week! God is good. It made me step back and ask where I'm really meant to focus. After a lot of prayer and reflection, the answer is clear: it's time to go all in on strIQ. That means I'll be pressing pause on Freedom Investor Academy—not because anything's wrong, but because something's going really right. I want to serve you better with total focus. So here's where I'll be: strIQ Squad It's a free community for education, training, deal sharing, partnerships, and networking. And here's what matters most to me: I want your feedback as we build strIQ 2.0. Not building in a vacuum—building together. The platform we all wish existed. If you joined this community for the faith element, that's not going anywhere. Faith is one of strIQ's three core values. It's in the DNA. If God's not in this, it's not worth doing. As much as I'd love to build a $100M company, what actually gets me out of bed is the life change—people building wealth, making real connections, and hopefully encountering Jesus through the culture we create together. Exciting things ahead—and I want you there for it! 👉 https://www.skool.com/striqsquad/about Let's go! Matt

@Eduardo Visbal - Thanks for sending! Do you know if STRs are allowed? Seller open to seller financing?

Gotcha - do you have the HOA docs you can share? Any HOA fee?

The picture is a screenshot of STRIQ & the top property is actually my property. It definitely is not making $121,408 (I wish!). Since this is so drastically off, how can I make sure the data is correct?

Hey @Brandi Bonin! I often times remove the very top and bottom comps when looking at the data set. There’s often times far outliers when dealing with data so it’s usually best to totally remove that #1 comp when looking at most markets. Now if there’s 10+ comps showing similar numbers, that’s where you can have more confidence, but oftentimes the very top #1 comp can be wrong because of dealing with millions of pieces of scraped (and syndicated) data from multiple different places.

I was scared with $50K in 2020. Now I have 5 STRs across 4 markets. Building strIQ—the tool I wish existed when I started.
