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.

No hype, the data is driven by the job market and lack of housing supply.

This gives both parties the opportunity to test each other out (I recommend 4-6 months).

Trying to confirm the market data for a potential investment area to feel great about modeling rents, inventory, population/census direct etc.

Hi Kasey,AirDNA and Pricelabs are good data sources for what revenue you can expect as a short term rental.
