We need you to have the ability to analyze all of this data and more.  

Would really love more data points from TN investors. 

Hi all,Here is Philadelphia data from MLS for 4 quarter of 2019.Let me know if you want to see any other county that covered by Bright

Show him the supporting comp data and renovation costs.

When this other Realtor sees the sales data hit the MLS next month, it'll appear that their buyer lost by $500.

The fact that you're even making a post indicates there is enough uneasiness with the situation that you're not sure about "their" data vs having your own.

Hey @Alan Ford, like @John Underwood said, your cousin should be able to provide previous years performance stats.The fact that it is a current STR is nice as it has data to show how well it is doing.Also, is she going to leave it furnished for you?

Of course, for investing in rental real estate, you want markets with lower vacancies and ongoing demand.The bottom line is that for a great real estate investment market, you want to invest in areas where the data show signs of current and continued healthy growth.A few sources to find the data mentioned above include City-Data.com and censusreporter.org.

I don't want to base everything on a "rule" or a test, but finding most deals so far struggle to meet the 1% rule, let alone come close to the 2% rule. 

There application wasn't the greatest but they were the most qualified at the time and I knew they could mathematically afford it based on the data in the credit report.
