First things you do to analyze a new market
What is your process/what are the first things/metrics you look at when familiarizing yourself with a new market/submarket. I just started as an analyst at a real estate investment firm and, coming from accounting, I have a steep learning curve. I know how to model and calculate the different returns/metrics, but I lack market knowledge. Anything helps - both big picture and granular detail.
Thanks in advance.
