Some topics to learn are Dynamic Pricing, SEOs, local laws, Airbnb algorithms, and much more. 

Not everything goes as simple as an app or algorithm makes it sound like and if this is your first door or inside your first 10 doors, I recommend being able to check on jobs, co-create your scope of work, and really be able to manage with proximity in mind.

I think what Jeffrey was saying is that a piece of software is only as good as the algorithm it uses and the data it receives...if you can't crank out the same analysis using a piece of paper and a pencil, then either your algorithm is too complex and/or your data is lacking.

The algorithm will be refined over the next 2 weeks as we watch things come together.

Lenders are using that BPO and their algorithms that they buy from CoreLogic to determine an opening value and your price has to fit within a percentage of that value or you’ll get kicked instantly.

I want an algorithm which tells me the likihood of seller selling and rates their motivation in any given area.Heck if we could determine potential terrorists we should be able to determine who upcoming sellers are.

Keep in mind some lenders use an algorithm model prior to a BPO.

My students all run an algorithm on their market.  

The key component I use prior to the list is running a double algorithm on the market to tell me where to spend my marketing dollars.Those algorithms are based upon the followingNumber of Cash Absentee purchased last 6 monthsNumber of SFR unitsNumber of NODs or Lis PendensNumber of REOsAverage Days on MarketMedian Sales priceNumber of 30% to 100% equity to medianPercent equity to UnitsNumber of units in the bottom 1/3rd, middle 1/3rd and top 1/3rd of median

Remember Facebook has changed it's algorithms.
