More leverage, but a lot less barrier to entry and we slowly start to acquire some rentals.

@Alexander RoeschmannSince we only have accurate and reliable housing data going back 130 years and stock market data back to 1926, what have you used to derive your "100 year cycle" hypothesis?

I've always created my own lists using either the MLS or public records data.

If you look at the data, in the last 5 recessions, home prices rose in 3, was basically neutral in 1 (~1.5% decline), and we all know about 2008. 

Is it easy to export the data?

I would recommend going with a smart, digital-first, data-driven small company who can really give your home a lot of attention.

Currently looking to get into investing out of state (still looking to narrow down on a specific area - any suggestions and inputs are always appreciated) due to the high barriers to entry in Southern California.
