@Chris VanderlooHey Chris some other thoughts, and I'm surprised not more have weighed in:Some analytics / data visualization that shows Variables like: price changes over different time periods (either based on estimates like Zestimates or actual sale data), in some cases, steep/rapid changes, or acceleration may be a window into when an area is getting that critical mass to move forward - I'm thinking a heat map etc after scraping price info over time - by the way, the Zestimate I've found the historical graph is not the ACTUAL historical Zestimate, (for whatever reason)Scraping the note world (paperstac, Note MLS) to again look for rapid changes in default rates or other relevant info that'd be leading indicator for pricing - note this would need more brainstormingWe use Monday.com - if there was a plug-in or something that'd help very specifically handle RE projects, especially as we onboard other people, that'd be great.Platform for specifically detailing projects for bid - something different than the Homeadvisor model, though - If we as investors could see actual historical labor rates on a per unit basis, this would be great.
