Best Software Tools for Analyzing Markets Remotely

[Reid Griffith]

What are the best websites, software, or tools to analyze data for the purpose of real estate investment? (Long term) Interested in the basics for a market such as average rents, property costs, average days on market, info on how many properties are being rented out each month compared to how many are on the market. Population and employment info as well? Doesn't have to all be on the same site.

Hey Reid,

My team uses Rentometer to check average rents in an area. 

Population and employment is usually tracked by the state. In Washington you can look it up through the Office of Financial Management.

You can also try using census data though that's a bit harder to use. I recommend trying to find your states specific department, they should publish stats at minimum once a year if not once a quarter.

Zerodown.com is a decent tool for looking a property statistics.

Hope these help!
