How to find out going rate for rental properties?
Hi Folks,
A bit of a rookie question here, but how do you find out the average rental rates for properties in a target area? I know that you can analyse deals on BP, but I find that a lot of the time, there isn't a lot of information for comparable properties in my target area (Capital Region, NY).
Appreciate any suggestions.
