Narrow it down to a specific area and I am sure someone with their keyword alerts may reach out.

Narrowing how you want to invest should hopefully alleviate some stress. 

If the system is looking at the same 100 properties as comps for both myself and the housing authority, my estimate might be based on the average for some or all of those properties, without regards to any amenities, but the housing authority's estimate is going to extract a narrower set of values, rendering a far more accurate estimate.

I'm a new investor, currently living in the SF Bay Area, looking for opportunity in out-of-state Rental Properties Investment.Currently, our research have been narrowed down to 2 locations: Memphis and Rochester.Our research has led us to focus on SFH turnkey rental properties or properties that require minor cosmetic rehab, do enough repetitions with incremental expansion on rehab project size, and build our portfolio from there.

It's great for those of us looking in new markets or for rookies trying to narrow down their options. 

You can also do this on your own, but the agent will be able to narrow down many options and if they're really good they'll uncover some gems or off market deals.What I suggest is doing basic deal analysis on each of the properties you visit and you'll improve the "math" skills that you mention you struggle with.

@Devante Cameron narrow down the types of RE investor you want to be.

So I will start to narrow my search as my time horizon approaches.

I am looking into both turnkey and traditional properties, but first need to narrow my markets.

I would narrow down your search to a specific neighborhood or zip code.St.
