Hey Andrew, welcome to the community!

One thing I’ve always done is focus on the 75th percentile of the rent estimates, as my properties tend to fall into that range (very nice, but small with no amenities).While I think there will always be some manual research involved, the current platforms lack key functionality that could be easily implemented with the available market data and technology.1.Quality Metrics:•Filter comps to match the quality of your rentals.

@Jaycee Greene after the year living there at first property can you get a second fha loan but have to live for a year too on the next one?

Here's the problem - in order to be fully dialed in the model needs to be unstable.

One of my goals this quarter is to post on REI forums and connect with other investors to network and learn more.

@Wayne Franklin welcome to the forums!

I would want them to know what's going on and to LISTEN to what their frame of mind is.

All good reading and listening, education is best and if you want to learn you have to ingest as much information as possible.I read many books that helped me, but my go-to is listeining to at least 2hrs of podcast with real examples per day.One very important things that "want-to-be" fails is to understand that real estate has many different specialities, so you have to focus your time in your real project.

All this to say your repair partner is going to be crucial to your success.
