@Ian Ippolito just came back to life  from 'health' reasons in Florida (?)

I hope your holiday's are going well and that the new year will be bring each of you all of the wealth, health and happiness your hearts and hands can hold.

Here they are:1- Divorce2- Loss of Job3- Health issuesAnd my personal opinion of those statistics?

What stats do u look at to see the health of a market and where do u go for your 1 stop shop of these stats?

This is an interesting topic.The Urban Land Institute published Technical Bulletin 50 in 1964 following a years-long collaboration with the FHA and the Public Health Service (not sure why them).  

The hearing by the county health dept. is in a few days.It is over two years behind on taxes and will be auctioned this summer unless it's brought current.The house is a wreck.

However, if you go to that hoatalk site and search rentals, you will find that many people feel that though rentals appear to be not so good, when it comes time that YOU, for instance, find yourself with the need, for whatever reason, health, job opportunity elsewhere, finances, whatever, to rent, you CAN"T because the hoa/coa/poa does not allow it.

Right now I have two percs registerd by the Health Department.

As the other poster indicated, why could be motivated by many reasons---divorce, relocation, changes of income/health tend to be the leading motivators most of the time...As there are no renovations needed, ARV is the wrong term to use (after repair value pertains to properties that are in need of repair)---CMV or current market value might be a more appropriate term to use.
