I am using the platform propstream to assist in my deal analysis, however in doing so I am confused as to why would a property be listed more than what it is actually valued at prior to a rehab being conducted. for example this property is listed for 70,000 but the arv is calculated at being 66,000 but the comps that i ran that sold within the last 6 months had purchase prices of 165,000/ 30,000 / 28,000 / 25,000. and the square footage of the comps are 1,500/ 1,494/ 1,218/ 1,424.

I am located in the Gardner area of Massachusetts and would like to learn the markets out here and surrounding towns all along route 2 to build my portfolio.

I would imagine smaller units with good locations do well. 

Is there any you know to get advice on this subject-to deals, Thank you for your response If you post your location; I'm sure there are lots of people on here who can recommend someone in your area.

You have lived in the property for 2 out of the 5 years immediately prior to sale.Since you qualify for both. 

The BRRRR Strategy can a GREAT one as you can increase the value of a property through rehab prior to renting it.I'd recommend learning as much as you can about the different aspect of it...Audible Audiobooks are a great resource to do that.

This had me thinking last night (prior to reading your post), that I have a friend who is an investor and owns a few properties etc. but spends a lot of their time traveling from conference to conference getting "education".

I would make sure to get very good comps or if buying get the history of the property and do not count 2020-2022 and see how it performed prior to COVID and last year. 

It is a great community and location! 

I currently have a 2/2 house located in Camp Tayler suburb of Louisville, KY.
