But I saw it first on 10/4 (from both Realtor.com and another Realtor's automated listings). 

I believe this not only because of our tax structure, but also because of increasing job instability and the impact on jobs from technology and automation.

Hey Simon,I'm building a tool that does pretty much what you describe, to automate what I'm doing in spredsheets.http://www.reikit.com/compsIt uses zillow/google maps data for lookups, but I use it with my own comps that I got from my realtor, then I run my own adjustments to get an accurate ARV.It's still early days, but check it out and let me know what you think.  

I may need to put on the tool belt more in the beginning, but hope to automate the process as much as possible and employ as many people, creating value in their lives  Thanks again Dave.Ray Sample

Automated post cards via click2mail or yellowletters maybe 2% response using the same list.  

Hello BiggerPockets  Community,I'm a contractor/consultant in Northern Virginia providing Home Automation (The Internet of Things - "Smart" devices), Security & AudioVideo design & installation services for both commercial and residential properties.

I wanted to reach out to this group and see who is currently doing terms deals - mainly selling on owner financing or lease option.I would love to get feedback on any and all tips on automating the selling process as much as possible. - Who shows your properties?

If so could I in theory call a Real Estate agent and ask them to send me automated properties?

If it's mostly automated, it's not that hard...I easily do 2000+ entries per month across all my businesses and my personal finances, and because I'm seeing many of the same transactions over and over, it's not difficult to automate.
