So you and your agent need to look at the data for comparable pending and (very) recently sold homes, as well as whatever active homes may be available - because solds and pending aside, the value of this prospective home will be comparatively lower if there are 15 similar homes on the market for buyers to look at compared to if there are just one, two, or zero other homes like this for buyers.And I know it's tough with HUD homes because they don't take escalators, but in the end, armed with your market analysis data, you need to bid your 'walk away' price, meaning that if you bid a dollar under what it goes for you'd be OK with not getting it, rather than kicking yourself and wishing you had bid a dollar more.

When your friend told you that Wells Fargo asked her for a $1,000,000 deposit into a Wells Fargo checking account in exchange for doing her jumbo refinance, that's what we're talking about when we say "general ease of availability" -- asking someone for a $1,000,000 deposit to do their refi would be NOT "generally easy and available" for most people (lol).It is not yet captured in any publicly facing data, but I'm seeing indications that jumbo may right now be turning the other direction.https://www.mba.org/news-resea...

Lessons are invaluable and I’m sure you’ve learned quite a lot.

I recently came across a website that analyzes a property’s data related to Airbnb use and traditional rental called MashVisor.

There are apps that look at the same data for a fee.

But what quantitative data do you have to back up that position?

Not surprising that any lender is going to be very wary of any bump in value right now, even one driven by a rehab and forced appreciation. 

What kind of solutions are out there for me to be able to upload both sets of data and map them out so we can begin to search for any properties that satisfy that criteria?

I'm looking for someone mostly to formate data and then que it up in dialers and other marketing platforms.

Some of the data points I'm evaluating are:Population growth rateUnemployment rateJob growth rateWage growth rateMedian housing priceMedian rentI'm wondering where to find the best online data sources.
