Hi all,Is there any resource on the web that can tell me how often rentals pop up in a certain area and how quickly they're snatched up?

Every morning I wake up and the first thing I do is open my web and begin researching things about real estate.

Rentometer is telling me I'm on the low end of the bell curve but I don't know how much to trust that web site.

Type these into web search and you will be able to see what they are all about.

It is also true, the better the website, the better the response, and there are a plethora of web site gurus out there offering services to those who need them.

Check out my web MobileHomeOffers and give me a call.

Let me be real clear that this property was so unique that it would be a gamble as a flip, so it only made sense if we were going to either a) live in it or b) rent it or c) do both, live in and rent it.

Only the most desperate renters would probably agree to live there so the price of the property would have to be dirt cheap and cost you as little money as possible in the rehab to make it worth the effort.Your gambling that the surrounding area will be gentrified in the next few years and increase the property values.If this was in Southern California I would say yes absolutely but,the ATL may be a little harder to wait for unless the population booms there in the next 5 years.

You should be able to find them easily with a web search.
