I’d look into historic appreciation data for the area before making a decision.

Have good data and comps. 

Propstream is great, you can get a lot of data off of there as well as driving for dollars which I believe is also around $99/month. 

Do you rely on specific data sources, gut instincts, or perhaps a blend of both?

Some tools myself and others have used: - Skip tracing- Mailers- Data aggregators like PropStream, PropertyShark, etc. 

They would never look at 99% of the 154 units that are listed on Zillow at any given time.I used this exercise to show how opportunities fall through the cracks & most investors make investment decisions based on bad or irrelevant data.

You learn a lot about data and analysis, renovation costs and dealing with tenants which can mitigate some of the fear of investing.

First step is looking at the data of your comps.
