Here's what I've been told:- Realtor is your gateway to accurate MLS data (unless you become a licensed agent yourself)- The wrong realtor may speculate and potentially provide inaccurate info, but they should be, in general, one of your stronger resources for things like FMV (fair market value), DOM (days on market) and other details associated with local/current trends- www.irr.com seems to be a great resource for national and local market reportingI hope this is helpful - otherwise, I trust an expert will comment soon enough :) ...Btw - my family and I love to visit your area in the summertime (7 presidents)...sorry for the annoying seasonal traffic from us North Jersians!

There seems to be a lot of development out there and the traffic on the 84 going into Boise each day seems to be getting worst by the month, so it would appear there are a lot of people commuting. 

Its in a good area of the city (lincoln park/lakeview) with decent traffic. 

I understand such failure rates in training, I was an Air Traffic Controller (ATC) in the Army.

In terms of finding properties, it has its positives (most widely-used site) and negatives (harder to find "deals" here because the site is over searched with a lot of traffic).

Pacolet is a small mill town that only has 2 traffic lights.

If you go just south or north of Seattle, you will find nice areas with decent prices, such as Renton, Kent, Des Moines on the south (which I like more than the north with bad traffic and really bad commute) or Bothel, Lynnwood on the north.

As another datapoint, I frequently check the web traffic of the big players as a proxy of popularity, investor views, etc.  

You still need to drive traffic to that site and convert some number of that traffic into leads.

I think they're still operating only in California(correct me if I'm wrong) and haven't read much other than forum comments or a post from this OC broker http://malakaisparks.com/why-haus-will-fail/.The sites traffic doesn't seem to be growing much so who thinks this is still going somewhere?
