Websites and Research Tools

[Michael Peralta]

Hi BP Community,

I am eager to get involve in the process of purchasing real estate, however, as a newbie I want to ensure my first deal is a favorable one. Unlike most, my financial situation only allows me to have one shot at this so my 1st purchase will be the most important. A bad deal could set me back a couple years.

Therefore, are there any websites you recommend to conduct my proper due diligence? Before investing I want to analyze the following: 

• Identifying a Town/Neighborhood to Invest In
• Identifying a Reputable Real Estate Agents
• Housing Trends in the Area 
• Quickly analyzing a Deal
• Average Rents in the Area
