I have looked at some rankings on websites and some data like that but I'm curious what actual investors are thinking and why they focus where they do.

@Nicholas Borda A good tip I was reminded of recently was to look up the other owners on the street or in the general area on the local property records website. 

The auditor website shows he purchased property for 135k in 2005.

you can reach me here anytime. my email address is on my website (I can't post it on the forums)

@Jesse KerrYou can ask them about average sales prices, days on market, housing statistics, age of neighborhood/when homes were built, things like that.If you’re interested in demographics or crime rates, you need to look at sites like city-data dot com or neighborhood scout dot com or local police websites, or whatever you can find online, as agents can’t provide that information to you.

@Clifford Paul I didn't know the IRRL worked like that thank you guys I have been learning so much through this website and the great people on here!

@Robert Burns If you're overwhelmed with low quality leads it's not a bad idea to direct them to a website with all the qualifying details.Bandit signs definitely tend to bring in a high quantity of low quality leads.

Hi Irina,Fannie Mae puts their rental income calculation forms right up at that website I linked above for anyone to download. 

It should be available on the BP website or on Amazon.

Just formed my LLC last friday and am in the process of getting my website up and running.
