Newbie rent question

I'm looking at evaluating multifamily (duplex, triplex, and quads) houses outside boston on transit lines to the city. Can I use rent numbers from the city and adjust for town conditions to get a rough number for rents. They are going to be lower than being in the city, but I'm trying to determine how much lower

It's always best to get the numbers specifically for the property if you want to be accurate. Otherwise work with a realtor and they will be able to supply you with the relevant info. Sometimes looking online does not always give you what you need.

Protip: Talk with property management companies as well.
