If nothing else it gives you more data points for your negotiations, and as every inspector is different, you double your chances something doesn't get missed. 

Hello Everyone,There are good references available for property buying/selling data and forecast.

That is a logical and critical data point that can and must be determined as early in the game as possible.

So we gave a 60 day notice to all tenants for the new monthly fee.Our plan is to have Onsite Manager read electric meters,  send meter data to Off Site manager, we prepare statements on who owes what,  send statements to OM to distribute to tenants, and then we hit the tenants bank accounts, or Credit/Debit Cards remotely.  

The inflation data will be out on Friday for the month of November. 

And if the property you have now is a good one and can stress test a higher mortgage then just do a refi on it now.

Hi @Eric Stugart, as far as where to find data on demographic trends, FRED has a lot of good data if you don't mind the bad UX/UI.  

The way I underwrite this is using a less 10% of current rent modeling which will provide a stress test.  

I've read multiple blogs / websites / youtube videos on how to determine which state is primed for investing and the general consensus is to look for:Population GrowthJob GrowthJob Diversity (More than one major employer)Average Rent PriceAverage Home PriceCrime RateCost of livingMy question is, where do you guys pull these data points from?

. * Lean more on actual rental data from investors/agents vs airdna & other software's.* Make sure the market's you invest in are STR friendly.
