I just find that it's a very different person that excels with the analytical side of investing compared to the more emotional side of retail sales.

I have created a spreadsheet trying to capture the points that Brandon Turner describes in his book as being analytical points to quickly screen properties as potential deals just based on what you can get from seeing the home on listing sites. 

CoStar (commercial real estate analytics provider) published an article (there is a paywall for CoStar) about office workers'  productivity working from home, and their preferences working in the office in the future. 40% of respondents said they were less productive at home, while 22% said they were more productive, but at the cost of working more hours. 50% of respondents preferred some type of flexible policy of splitting time between the office and home. 

I also want to congratulate @James McCormick, for originating this superb post.

RCA analytics reported that reported that only 10 hotel transactions took place nationally last month.

I recently had a colleague send me the Multifamily and Commercial Real Estate Performance Metrics report by Moody's Analytics for the first quarter of 2020 (dated May 14, 2020).

@Tommy LordenNice analytics to make your point.

Which platforms do the experienced rental property investors use for searching properties, doing analytics, and finding deals.

How do you continue to improve your analytical skills while also not redirecting precious time from your criteria window?

You’ll want to pay close attention to the “days on market” analytic on websites like Zillow.
