Buyer Investor Software/Dashboard
Hello All,
Does anyone recommend an all-in-one investor dashboard/software for sourcing and finding deals, aggregating relevant data about specific properties (current owner, T-12 rental history, current lease amounts/dates, nearby hyper-local features (hospitals, Walmarts, demographic/census, etc.), ranking by cap-rate/cash-flow, rental estimates, and/or evaluating/forecasting/under-writing properties? It would be nice to be able to quickly monitor investments in a particular geographic area and see all of the relevant investment information in one place as well as relevant forecasts in cash flow and appreciation. I am willing to pay if this exists. I am interested in both MLS and non-MLS properties.
I am also not part of a brokerage, so I do not have direct access to MLS data (although I know you can purchase it from places like ListHub, CoreLogic, or FirstAmericanTitle or view it on sites like Homesnap or brokerage websites).
The only current direct solutions that come to mind are Mashvisor.com, Reanomy for CRE, or HouseCanary if you are a registered agent.
Otherwise, I suppose one can use sites like Roofstock or HomeUnion to rank and find investment deals. But the supply on their sites seems rather constricted compared to the MLS and biased towards SFH.
My rather archaic alternative is to simply monitor Homesnap and Zillow closely with an Excel spreadsheet and hope I can catch deals as they go by and gather all of the other relevant information from other sources. But this is incredibly cumbersome. There is also working with a respectable Buyer's Agent, but I have found them to be limited to specific zip codes in a particular market (small areas) or not knowledgeable in investing at all (no offense). They also take 3% commission which I'm looking to avoid if possible given the movement towards flat fees and refunds.
Thanks for the help!
John
