Making dust wiping nationwide is still under review (until mid July I think).If you are only looking to buy a property and want a quick evaluation for yourself then you could use the test sticks from Lowes or Home Depot.

These will have a bigger effect than any nationwide trends.

Even I work with a private equity firm that has a proven track record of sales at 94% of BPO with 6K-8K homes nationwide at any given time.What this means to everyone is that the banks now have a developed infrastructure both internal and outsourced where they can efficiently liquidate homes into the retail market which leads back to the regulators.If the regulators let the banks sell, then we will likely see a lot more homes coming to market.

I had a loan all buttoned up, only to hear that Fannie/Freddie imposed a nationwide 5% "declining market" LTV cut.

The tiny house movement has been gaining such momentum over the last 10+ years, it's forcing cities and county nationwide to review, update and remove outdated code.

But, we are nationwide.

Also, review the market cycle reports out there...Most large markets nationwide for SFR and MF have peaked, most of them back in September 2015.

We do exactly what you are talking about for clients nation wide. 

Ryan Dossey  when your talking about rehab loans that are the province of HML and private lenders nationwide there are just not many banks that will do these.. they (Banks) really never were deep into the space.. and after the GFC its really one of the last loan products they chase.in my experience with Orygun banks the nationals have no product for fix and flip.. the community banks will do it but only for their absolute top tier clients. 

THEN there are also tons of buyers and sellers who just want professionalism, experience, and a high level of service.If I do the top 1 percent in annual income nationwide off of 20 great clients do I care what the other 1,000 think who feel brokers/agents are worthless??
