What I am hearing is you will need to rely on  some properties to carry others.

Generally speaking, with SFR or small multis, I just rely on the lease/rent roll (and some form of proof of payment; i.e. bank statements, deposit receipts, tax returns, etc.). 

Quote from @Ryan Konen: You are correct that comping software like Privy, Propwire, and Propstream primarily rely on public records for their data, such as county assessor records, MLS feeds, and sometimes 3rd party aggregators.
