Any tips on determining the ARV

[Caleb Godsey]

Hello everyone! 

I'm getting very close to feeling comfortable purchasing my first BRRR rental property. One of the things I'm am asking for tips on is determining the ARV of a home to better assess whether or not this will be a good deal with as accurate of numbers as I can get without bringing in an appraiser.

Currently, I go to Zillow, Redfin or similar property listing tool and find the house I'm interested and view other homes in the same neighborhood/area that are similar in size/bedrooms/bathrooms/etc and then that's how I get an ARV.

Any tips on how I can be more accurate with these numbers? Thanks for the help in advance.
