Briefcase Guides: Proptech, Real Estate Finance and Marketing

Briefcase Guides are plain-English explainers on proptech, DSCR and investor lending, property management, multifamily, and real estate marketing. They are written by the team behind Square Footage, a weekday newsletter of the top US real estate stories with 35,000+ readers, and every guide cites its sources.

Proptech

What proptech is, who the major companies are, where the money is going, and where AI is actually useful in real estate. Start here if you are new to real estate technology or mapping the market.

DSCR and investor lending

How DSCR loans work, what lenders require, how rates are set, and how to compare lenders. These guides are educational, not financial advice. Talk to a licensed lender about your situation.

Property management and multifamily

Marketing plans, digital channels, and operating trends for property managers and apartment operators.

Real estate and mortgage marketing

Practical playbooks for email, newsletters, video, SEO, and content in real estate, mortgage, and proptech, drawn from running Square Footage every weekday.

How we write these guides

  • Answer first, then the detail.

  • Only sourced statistics, with dates.

  • Updated when the facts change.

  • No sponsored rankings. Editorial is independent.
