With the public firms you should be able to get some numbers.

You will have local trends, new starts, employment, gentrification, social influences, public amenities as well as commercial activities.

At the end of the day you want to reduce the anger and chauk it up to working with the public.

For example:"Across from the New River's public access, perfect for young professionals who enjoys kayaking and paddle boarding..." is saying "YOUNG" a no no due to age discrimination?"

The Public Policy Institute of California has some great information on population growth and dynamics in California:http://www.ppic.org/main/publication_show.asp?

Seems to me you need to sit down with the parties involved and work out a plan that will protect you, your tenants and the public.

:)In all seriousness, you don't find the actual and true ARV by looking on Zillow and them telling you that shows just how inept they are.To answer your question, in TX, you have a non disclosure state and as such, the sold prices are not made public record so you get NA or "Null" on Zillow.

If you have access to MLS, you can pull cash buyers and through public record and skip tracing, you can cold call them to get them on your list.  

@Stephen LovettMy train of thought is quite simple: the more one publicizes their successes, like-minded people will follow. 

Its possible I would only hold the California properties in a trust and skip the LLC (but cant I change the beneficiary without any public filing?).
