How are you forecasting rent potential?

[David Lewis]

Maybe a basic question but how are you all figuring out what a unit could rent for?

As simple as looking at Zillow, Apartments.com, etc. and looking for comparable units for rent in the same neighborhood? My only concern with this approach is that I’ll find units FOR rent vs those that are under lease. 

Are there more sophisticated tools/techniques out there I should be using?

Getting your agent to pull a list from the MLS would be the most accurate way. However, if all else fails I have found rentcast.io to be fairly accurate. It's free too which is nice.
