Rental Prices (How to estimate them)

[Account Closed]

What is the most reliable way to find out what a Single Family Home will rent for when running an analysis on a potential investment property? 

[Jeff Rabinowitz]

The most reliable way is to list it (or a similarly described unit) for rent and see what the response is. Another is to call and inquire when you see similar units advertised for rent. There are several online sources that have variable reliability (everything will have variable reliability). When you get similar results from rentometer.com, eppraisal.com, your local MLS, zillow, trulia, etc. you are probably getting close to prevailing rent.
