In terms of statistical information, I look for stable or upward-trending sales data, short and shortening lengths of market time, and generally how hard it is to find a 'good deal'... in areas that are gentrifying, people will tend to jump on it as the margins look pretty wide.

Hi guys,Im wondering if anybody knows of solid property management software that has either a blackberry companion app to input data, or some other way to record info on the go...Theres GOTTA be an easier way to keep track of properties on the run!

You are at more risk, as a long distance owner, to the small-time or part-time PM, who gets worn out and just drops the whole thing to take a day job or focus on their real estate agent work.Once the PM has the property under mgmt, there are a host of things you can do to help ensure that they're not fleecing you on maint fees, and are placing good tenants.

They could interpret the CC&Rs a little better, but they wouldn't be able to do anything official with the financial data.

Also some the utilities data.
