Hi everyone, just curious if there are any websites around that detail trends in the market (e.g. historical sales over a period of time, # of active listings year on year, # of listings sold year on year).

@Jeevs Pothen      Simply search the Bigger Pockets website.

A good amount of properties are not listed on Realtor.com nor on LoopNet and the best bet to find them is to search the listings on websites of multifamily commercial brokers active in the market(s) you are interested in. 

@Teralyn SeabrookHave you looked in RIHousing website?  

On that note, this website has really useful calculators that you can use to create a sort of 'analysis' that can help you determine up front as an investor if the property is going to have a decent rate of return on investment.

I actually got it from your states website but i can send you a copy.

I researched his website and confirmed he's buying these and averaging 300% to 400% returns.

I love the idea of this website.

auction properties on most of the auction websites require POF   ( a real one)  EM  significant not a few hundred. 

Use other websites to get phone numbers.
