[FREE Tool] Analyze Local Home Value Trend and Appreciation Rate

[Jerry Wang]

This tool is only meant for rookie like me :).

Story: 

I’ve been trying to learn target local markets (e.g., Austin). Some questions I asked myself are,

• What is the recent trend/history of the market?
• How much would the home value appreciate in the past few years?

Without accessing to MLS and paid research data, I did not find answers to these questions easily (let me know if you have a good way :-). I decides to have my web scraper and get the numbers I want.

Tool:

Here is what my scraper output for now. Basically, you can query by zip code or city. Analysis based on median home price (from some public data).

1. By zip code: 'Austin, TX, 78701'
   [2008-04-29] $314900
   [2018-03-30] $418975
   Appreciation by: 33.05% in 10.06 years
   Appreciation rate: 2.87% over 10.06 years
2. By city: 'Austin, TX'
   [2008-04-29] $220500
   [2019-03-30] $356547
   Appreciation by: 61.70% in 11.07 years
   Appreciation rate: 4.43% over 11.07 years

Let me know how you think. And If you think this might help, feel free to PM. I can query up to 10 zip codes or cities for you at a time.

Thanks

Jerry
