After you get comfortable with the info gathering, you can vet the data to meet your criteria and prioritize files as to your opinion regarding opportunities.

I especially like the ashburn/brambleton areas because with the metro getting out there in 5ish years, the new town centers going up, and the thousands of data center jobs and large employers moving out that way, I think that area will be poised for an upswing in value within the next 10 years... and I know, I know we should never make investments based on appreciation lol!

I have not seen any contrary data as 2009 was officially the bottom of SoCal markets.Thanks again,Matt

Wear out a pair of shoes, walk and talk those areas and introduce yourself.All you young'ns out there are getting too caught up in technology, real deals in your area are made with people, again, get face to face.Analysis has a place in RE, but you can get bogged down in irrelevant data.

Lenders have guidelines based on decades of historical data, they anticipate future concerns more than simply looking at the borrower's picture on any Tuesday.

The area will dictate my out of pocket entry cost and also how long I need to wait before I have the full amount of funds.

Hi @Steve FothIts a cash or terms discussion with the seller.Why pay $49K for a property that has little data to support that?
