With those you can use Luke's "enemy method" of looking at their rates and calendars, and estimate their revenue that way.

What tools or methods should I employ to evaluate its true market value?

I will be able to cash out my original down payment + 30k more if I wanted to but as im going through the process I was wondering in the future if I pursue investing full time how do you still get approved for mortgages?

A few methods include: Real estate conferences (which can be costly), joining paid communities (which can really be costly), the meetups and forums posted in BiggerPockets, local events, and other online softwares that allow you to search for buyers specifically interested in your location and preferences (of which I like freipro.com the best).
