@Dave Hart I don't know of any data analytics tool that gives you accurate price to rent ratios on small multi-family properties.

This is the most accurate method for determining the After Repair Value (ARV).Your broker can provide a Comparative Market Analyses (CMA) to assist you in estimating the specifications of homes in the area and the value that these specifications add to your property.

How accurate is it ?

Ensure you thoroughly research and analyze potential areas for profitable flips.Renovation Costs: Accurate estimation of renovation costs is crucial.

I am using the extended due diligence period to get the most accurate renovation estimate as possible.

Just put in the listing that it's priced "as-is" and if your numbers are correct and you price it accurately, someone will buy it.

the saying "they don't build em like they used to" is 100% accurate.

Most people we've talked to say it's not cost effective to purchase a property management system for a few properties, but without it, it's the only way to get out and accurately manage the 75 to 200 sites out there in the game now.

And the answer is always the same :-) There is no way to accurately do this...too many variables and moving parts, plus it varies too much from one locale to another.You need to find a really good General Contractor and pay him to walk the property with you....over and over....until you feel really comfortable estimating yourself, and that should take years.Alternatively there are online calculators (even one here in the tools section) but I would not rely on them for the reasons listed above.

As an appraiser I can get a more accurate market value than the Z-Estimate and I'm comfortable researching County Records.
