What other data should I be watching?

If I don’t hear from you in the next 10 minutes, I will assume you aren’t attending and I will move on to my next appointment.Using this system as dramatically reduced any wasted time I used to endure as part of the showing process as well as giving me data about their timeliness/responsiveness/respect for others' time.I often schedule several viewings at a time, 15 minutes apart. 

Personally, I’d review MLS data, Zillow, and consult with a realtor to determine an accurate ARV.

There is really no data on this so most of the numbers are just proposed.

I'm one of the landlords that mostly uses the credit/criminal checks as a data point to see if they were honest with me prior more than anything.

What I see a lot of people do is overthink it and then either stop in their tracks, or wait for years to get started due to the overwhelming data that they get on what they want to do.

Tip #1 - no such thing as one perfect market There is lots of data on Bigger Pockets and MTR experts that have released rankings of top cities for next year, but remember it's not just about the purchase-- it's also about the operation.

Hopefully, based on actual field measurements, past project data, and estimating software, your contractor can develop a detailed estimate that lays out the cost of labor and all materials for each phase of the project.

Most times landlords don't have data or cannot adequately factor in vacancy time or turnover rate.

Then research local regulations and tourism and data.
