Tracking flips via Zillow
Hello all. I am new here and have been digging through the site trying to soak up all the great REI information. :)
I am a n00b in the research and planning stages, but I plan to buy some properties to rehab and flip once I become more comfortable with the whole process.
To get some ideas about the market around my area, I am gathering data related to what REIs are paying for properties, what they are reselling for, and DOM before sale.
At any rate, I have been using Zillow to find recent sales that have been turned around and relisted (flips). Up to this point, I have been doing it manually by searching solds, and then activating for sale listings to see what overlaps.
While this works and I have found 4 active flips around my area, is there a script or some tool that I am missing on Zillow that will search "For sale" listings and compare them to recent "Solds" to expose overlaps?
Is there a better tool out there for this besides bothering a Realtor with MLS access?
TIA for any help with this peeps :)
