[Duke Giordano]

Hello All,

In evaluating a particular market when looking at multi-family syndication, what in your opinion are some of the most important market parameters (some I outlined below)and where can one find this info, preferably free (also outlined below).  For example some site such as rentometer are pay only.  What sites do you all use to best/easiest find this information?  Such parameters would be:

1. Population Growth: US Census, Data USA, city-data.com

2. Job Growth: deptofnumbers.com

3. Crime Rate: city-data.com (hard to find), crime reports, justicemap.com, neighborhoodscout (pay)

4. Median Household Income to Avg Rent Ratio: city-data.com

5. Landlord Friendly states: Where can one find which states are landlord friendly

6. Job Diversity: not sure where to find this type of info

7. School District: can be found on Real estate sites such as zillow, realtor.com

8. Rent growth in a particular Zip Code: Rentometer (pay), Aprtmentlist.com, rentonomics, rent cafe, rent jungle

Thanks in advance for your input
