On the "live" (it's not live) training right now. Since I signed up last night, I've already gotten multiple texts and emails from one of their team members telling me the webinar will reveal "secrets" they overheard Pace telling clients, "secrets" he'll let us in on but only if we stay until the very end, etc. Super scammy. Then the chat feature in the "live" webinar being disabled, while claiming to be live, saying there are over 2,000 participants when the webinar shows there are just over 500 people, is just gross. I don't care if he has the secret to find the holy grail, this is so unethical. Bailing.

ps - we're 30 minutes in to the 60-minute webinar and he hasn't told us a thing yet.

New accredited investor who's still narrowing down markets. Which platform or subscription is the best investment as I start to drill down into the numbers? PriceLabs? AirDNA (pricey!)? Something else?

I don't have anything to list, and I want to be able to research many locations in different states. Thanks, folks.

(NAR) National Association of Realtors has some of the best real estate data that nobody knows about. Their SFR quarterly (ranked) median home sales data is unparalleled. Their source is all MLS data pulling from coast to coast, it's fantastic.


Great, thanks. I'm especially interested in market specific data, but this looks great. I'll definitely dig in.

I see their Research and Statistics area... is this what you're referring to? I'm not sure if there's additional data that normies like me who aren't realtors can't access?

Thanks to Trevor's tip, I drilled down and was able to find this link on the NAR site to market-specific reports:

I appreciate everyone's insights. Thank you for the time you took to leave your thoughts and advice.  

Thanks, Malcomb. I'm literally listening to David's book on Audible now. 

I'm a new investor (0 deals), and we live in Marin County, in the SF Bay Area. We are homeowners. We also have a couple hundred thousand dollars in liquid assets to invest, plus time and motivation.

Seemingly our smartest place to start is investing long distance. However, neither of us has any knowledge or skills of renovation at all. Is it reasonable to attempt BRRRR long distance, knowing we'll be 100% relying on contractors we've never met? The alternative seems to be purchasing locally, which is ... insane.

I should also note that this wold be just me (a woman) managing all investment and rehab, which complicates things even more, if you've ever dealt with a contractor.
