Hi @Gisele Sood, there is a mix of free and paid services that can help you retrieve the data that you seek.To gather data on tenant demographics and property demand, consider these resources:Census Bureau & City Data: Offers insights into local demographics, income levels, and household types.Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com Market Insights: Check these platforms for property demand trends, popular property types, and renter data by area.AirDNA & STR Insights: If considering short-term rentals, these provide data on occupancy rates, guest demographics, and property preferences.CoStar & REIS: Paid services that provide detailed market analytics on rental demand, property types, and demographic preferences.These sources can help you understand tenant needs and property demand in your area.
