Do I even need to filter out anything about the assessed value, sales information, year built, anything like that?

Hi Rachelle, Some good metrics to consider to help filter markets are; population growth, job growth, rent growth, income growth and job diversification.

Also, they had never changed the filters even though we left several there for them.

Don't hold your breath but I will at least look into the possibility. 

@Mike SchorahGo onto: https://www.listsource.com/; search your target area and you can filter by owners with high equity in their property.

There's also a million local meetups you could filter through and attend in your area to meet in person. 3) Review this comprehensive 64 page deck on the state of the 2023 housing market for real estate investors put together by @Dave Meyer and available for all BiggerPockets members.

My experience is that no matter how great/nice a LTR tenant is and how on-time they are with the rent, there is still a LOT of potential damage they can do--even for things as basic as not changing air filters (unless you do this for them).  

I'm talking to a LOT of lenders as I filter them out to find the good ones for investors.

If it does I'll take it a step further and start checking out the filters in the crawl.

, at least I can breathe for another year.
